The City of Wilmington has announced that all on-street, metered parking in downtown Wilmington will be free starting Thursday, Nov. 28, through Sunday, Dec. 1, in celebration of the Thanksgiving holiday.
Why it matters: Free parking provides residents and visitors an opportunity to enjoy the downtown area without the worry of parking fees. It’s a great time to shop local, dine out, or explore downtown attractions during the holiday weekend.
Trash and recycling reminders:
- Thursday collection changes: Trash, recycling, yard waste, and scheduled bulky pickups typically collected on Thursday will be collected a day earlier on Wednesday, Nov. 27.
- Friday collection: Trash and recycling pickups on Friday, Nov. 29, will remain on schedule.
Bottom Line: Plan your downtown visit this weekend to take advantage of free parking!
