City offices, courts and libraries close Wednesday for Veterans Day, but trash pickup stays on schedule

Dallas City Hall shuts down for Veterans Day on Wednesday, Nov. 11, but trash trucks, the shelter at Dallas Animal Services and the city's golf courses will keep running, according to a schedule the city released Monday.

All city offices will be closed, as will Municipal Court and every Dallas Public Library location. The libraries' digital collection of ebooks, audiobooks, music and magazines stays available around the clock at DallasLibrary.org.

Trash and recycling

Garbage, recycling and brush and bulky item pickups will run on their regular schedules. Only the Sanitation Department's administrative offices close. The McCommas Bluff Landfill and the city's transfer stations will keep their usual hours for residents hauling their own loads.

Water and 311

Dallas Water Utilities' administrative and customer service offices will be closed Wednesday, and Water Customer Service will not take calls. Residents can still report a water problem through 311, at dallas.gov or on the Dallas 311 app.

The 311 line itself stays staffed for service calls such as water main breaks, downed trees and limbs, traffic signals that are out or knocked down, and animal control.

Parks, animals and the arts

Recreation centers, park maintenance facilities and Park and Recreation offices will close. Golf courses and tennis centers keep normal hours, and Fair Park stays open to the public, with round-the-clock security and its campus tenants open.

At Dallas Animal Services, the administrative offices close, but the shelter keeps its normal hours and animal services officers will answer 311 requests as usual.

The Office of Arts and Culture's administrative offices are also closed for the holiday.
