Is There a Trash Apocalypse?
Fear not, fellow Angeleno! Unlike the plot of a low-budget disaster movie, trash pickup in Los Angeles usually follows its regular schedule on MLK Day. That's right, even while we're honoring the legendary civil rights leader, the city's sanitation workers are often out there, unsung heroes battling the garbage behemoth.
Tip: Read the whole thing before forming an opinion.
But, as with all things LA-related, there's always a chance for a curveball. Weather, staffing issues, or a rogue raccoon could potentially disrupt the delicate balance of garbage collection. So, while it's highly likely your trash will be whisked away like a Kardashian's ex, a tiny part of you should probably prepare for the worst (and invest in some extra-large trash bags).
Tip: Focus on sections most relevant to you.
