Trash Pickup Schedules in Hamilton County, Indiana

Last Updated: August 2026

Trash pickup in Hamilton County isn’t handled on one countywide schedule. Your collection day depends on where you live, and in some areas it depends on the company serving your property.

Fishers and Noblesville have citywide residential collection programs, while residents in other parts of Hamilton County may need to check their city, HOA or individual waste provider to find their exact pickup day.

Rural & Unincorporated Hamilton County

Living in Hamilton County doesn’t necessarily mean you’re included in a city-operated trash program.

This is particularly important for residents in:

  • Unincorporated Hamilton County
  • Rural areas
  • Smaller towns
  • Properties outside municipal boundaries

For example, Fishers’ citywide trash contract applies to incorporated portions of Fishers but doesn’t include unincorporated properties outside city limits.

If you’re unsure who collects your trash, check:

  • Your most recent trash bill
  • Your HOA or neighborhood information
  • The name on your trash cart
  • Your city or town’s website
  • The waste companies serving your address

Holiday Trash Schedules

Trash schedules can change during holiday weeks.

In Fishers, when one of the program’s major observed holidays falls on a weekday, collection is delayed by one day for the remainder of that week.

Noblesville’s Republic Services program observes:

  • New Year’s Day
  • Memorial Day
  • July 4
  • Labor Day
  • Thanksgiving Day
  • Christmas Day

Residents should check the current holiday schedule before assuming their normal collection day has changed.


Missed Trash Pickup

If your trash wasn’t collected, first check:

  1. Was the cart out by the required time?
  2. Was today actually your scheduled collection day?
  3. Did a holiday delay the schedule?
  4. Was the cart overloaded or improperly placed?
  5. Were items left outside the cart that aren’t part of regular service?

Then contact the company responsible for your collection.

Fishers Republic Services: 317-917-7300

Noblesville Republic Services: 317-567-6400

Westfield: Missed garbage pickup can be reported through WeConnect.


Bulk Items Are Different

Don’t assume a couch, mattress, appliance or other oversized item will disappear with your normal weekly trash.

Bulk-item collection may require:

  • Advance scheduling
  • A separate pickup
  • An additional fee
  • Special placement at the curb

Fishers, for example, directs residents to Republic Services to schedule large or bulk-item pickup.

Before You Put Your Trash Out

  • Verify your collection day.
  • Check for holiday delays.
  • Put the cart out by your provider’s required time.
  • Make sure the lid can close if your provider requires it.
  • Don’t block the cart with vehicles.
  • Leave adequate clearance around the cart.
  • Don’t put hazardous chemicals, rechargeable batteries or other prohibited materials in household trash.
  • Schedule oversized items separately when required.
  • Bring the cart back from the curb after collection.

Noblesville, for example, requires carts to be placed at least 4 feet away from cars, mailboxes, fences and similar obstacles.


Local Tips

Don’t search for a “Hamilton County trash day.” There isn’t one countywide schedule.

Use your address whenever possible. Pickup-day lookup tools are much more reliable than a general calendar.

Know whether you’re actually inside city limits. A Fishers mailing address, for example, doesn’t necessarily mean the property is incorporated into Fishers’ citywide trash program.

Check holidays before reporting a missed pickup. Your collection may simply have shifted by a day.

Keep hazardous waste out of your trash cart. Hamilton County has a separate Household Hazardous Waste Drop-Off Center for many chemicals, paints, automotive fluids and other special materials.
