Thanksgiving Holiday Shifts Town Schedules

BY WESLEY YOUNG
SALISBURY POST

Some folks will need to put their garbage out on a different day next week.

In China Grove, Cleveland, East Spencer, Rockwell, Faith and Salisbury, the Thanksgiving holiday will not affect garbage collections.

But in Spencer, the town will double up collections on Monday, picking up both the Monday and Tuesday routes in one day. Then on Tuesday the town will pick up Wednesday routes, and on Wednesday the town will collect Thursday routes. No collections will take place Thanksgiving Day. The schedule goes back to normal on Friday. Spencer recycling collections will take place Wednesday, as they normally do.

In Granite Quarry, trash collection will take place on Friday, as it normally does, but recycling will be picked up Saturday instead of Friday.

Kannapolis residents will have their Thursday garbage collections on Friday. Otherwise the schedule is unchanged.

Landis will have no garbage collections Thursday or Friday.

Out at the Rowan County landfill, things will shut down Thursday only.

Meanwhile, all city, town and county offices will close Thursday and Friday.

Cleveland offices will close at noon Wednesday. In Landis, offices will close Tuesday for the parade, then reopen Wednesday before closing Thursday and Friday.

Rowan County offices will close at 1 p.m. Wednesday, remaining closed Thursday and Friday. Salisbury offices will close at 2:30 p.m. Wednesday, remaining closed Thursday and Friday.

In Salisbury, buses won't run on Thursday, but will pick up normal schedules Friday.
