I am a resident who produces very little trash. What services am I required to have?

We realize some households may not need all three (3) carts (landfill/garbage, recycling and compost).  However, due to the new law, SB 1383, participation in the recycling and composting programs is required.  You may request an exemption from having the blue recycling cart and/or green organics cart by documenting shared service with a neighbor or living in an HOA /Multi-Family (apartment) complex that have centralized containers.  Exemption requests can be made using the Solid Waste Exemption Request Form or completing the online application via OpenGov.
