Break out the buns, franks, and fireworks — the Fourth of July weekend is right around the corner. If you’re sticking around the city to see the [Macy’s fireworks display](http://social.macys.com/fireworks/?cm%5Fmmc=VanityUrl-%5F-fireworks-%5F-n-%5F-n&ref=bklyner.com#/performers), which will launch from the East River, you may want to watch from a friend’s rooftop and avoid the crowds on the Brooklyn Promenade. Or make tracks to Coney Island for their [2nd annual Fourth of July fireworks show](http://www.nycgovparks.org/events/2015/07/04/coney-island-fourth-of-july-fireworks?ref=bklyner.com).

However, be sure to note that some city services will be closed through the long weekend.

Here’s what you need to know, via [nyc.gov](http://www1.nyc.gov/nyc-resources/service/4103/fourth-of-july-holiday-information?ref=bklyner.com):

- City government offices, IDNYC enrollment centers, libraries, and courts will be closed starting Friday. The DMV will close on Saturday.
- There is mail delivery on Friday, but not on Saturday.
- You will not need to pay parking meters and alternate side parking is suspended on both Friday and Saturday.
- Sanitation will not be collecting garbage and recycling on Saturday. If Saturday is your regular pick-up day, place your trash on the curb on Sunday after 4pm.
- Because of the fireworks, the Staten Island Ferry will stop running between 8-10pm on Saturday. The last boats leave from both terminals at 7:30pm.
