As the year winds down, here is the City of Rancho Cucamonga information that matters most to our community.

Holiday Trash and Recycling

Burrtec does not collect on Thanksgiving Day (Thursday, November 26) or Christmas Day (Friday, December 25). New Year’s Day 2027 falls on a Friday, so service is also paused that day. When a holiday lands on a weekday, collection for the rest of that week is delayed by one day. Please set your containers out on your delayed collection day that week.

Burrtec has offered extra holiday trash pickup and curbside Christmas tree collection on your regular collection day in past years. Trees over 6 feet must be cut in half, and all ornaments, lights, and metal stands must be removed. The 2026 to 2027 dates have not been announced yet. Check with Burrtec at (909) 987-3717 or the City’s Environmental Programs line at (909) 919-2635.

Rain Season Preparedness

The City provides free, self-serve sandbag materials to Rancho Cucamonga residents, businesses, and schools at these fire stations:

  • Banyan Fire Station, 11108 Banyan St.
  • East Ave. Fire Station, 5840 East Ave.
