Residents of Galesburg are advised to adjust their routines next week, as Waste Management will start collection routes 30 minutes earlier than usual. This schedule change, in effect from June 23 through June 27, 2025, comes as a response to predicted high heat and humidity in the area. To ensure prompt pickup, all refuse should be placed curbside by 5:30 AM on your designated collection day. Early starts help protect workers from the most intense heat hours. Residents are encouraged to plan and make arrangements for timely set-outs during this period of extreme weather.
