Birmingham, AL Trash pickup schedule by zone
Measured zone and cycle details for the labeled services below. A weekday for recycling, bulk pickup, yard waste, leaf collection, or street sweeping does not identify your household trash day.
Match the service name first, then find your zone or area. This page shows service-specific schedule data; it is not a household schedule or personal pickup calendar.
Trash pickup schedule by zone
Weekly Monday-Thursday; one dedicated day per neighborhood (neighborhood-by-day table on the city schedules page; ~90 neighborhoods each tagged '1' or '2' for their recycling week). Friday appears only as a bulk/brush calendar day, not a garbage day.

Why this page has no shared date calendar
The listed services may follow different zone weekdays, alternating weeks, monthly ordinals, or service-specific routes. Use the matching table and its linked source; a single citywide date list could assign the wrong service or date.
A subscription feed (/al/birmingham-al/calendar.ics) is not available for these scoped schedules. Use the full city schedule and the relevant source link above to confirm your service.
