Service Updates: Waste Collection and Storm Recovery

Metro Nashville reminds residents that a new schedule for trash and recycling collection has officially begun as of February 2026. Residents should verify their specific collection days via the Nashville.gov portal or through hubNashville to ensure they are aligned with the new routing system designed to improve efficiency and reduce missed pickups.

Recovery efforts continue following the impacts of Winter Storm Fern. While major roadways have been cleared, the Mayor’s office maintains a state of emergency to facilitate the allocation of resources for debris removal and utility repairs. Residents are advised to avoid downed power lines and report any remaining hazardous road conditions to the Nashville Department of Transportation (NDOT).

Road and Infrastructure Alerts

Multiple lane closures remain active across the city as NDOT and the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) perform emergency pothole repairs and utility maintenance. Motorists should expect delays near major interchanges on I-24 and I-40 as crews work to stabilize pavement failures caused by recent freezing cycles. Always follow posted detours and exercise caution when entering active work zones.
