Monday marks the observance of Labor Day, which is meant to celebrate the contribution of workers and employees across the United States. With that, the local governments in Orange County will be giving many of their employees the day off, which will affect certain local government services.

Ahead of the holiday on Monday, Sep. 7, here is a rundown of what services each local government has said will be altered:

Town of Chapel Hill

Residential trash collection will be delayed until Wednesday, Sep. 9. Commercial trash will also not be collected on Labor Day, but will be completed by the end of the week. Curbside recycling that week will be delayed by one day and there is no change to the town’s yard waste collection.

All town offices will be closed Monday. The lone staffed facility that will be open is the A.D. Clark Pool from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., while parks, greenways, trails and other outdoor amenities will remain accessible. But all other Parks and Recreation facilities and administrative offices will be among the closed services.

Additionally, the Chapel Hill Public Library will be closed, and Chapel Hill Transit will not operate any routes.
