Commercial Waste Pickup

Standard commercial and multi-family (4+ units) service includes:

• One (1) BLUE-lid container for dry recyclables;
• One (1) GREEN-lid container for mixed organic waste; and
• One (1) BLACK-lid container for inert, non-organic, and non-recyclable waste.

Some businesses and multi-family properties may be exempt from State and City recycling or organics collection service requirements.  Allowable exemptions include lack of space, the customer generates a minimal amount of recyclable or organic material, or self-hauls material to a recycling center.  Exemption requests need to go through the City.  To request an exemption, start by clicking here for the form.

We will be monitoring usage of all containers and will tag your container(s) if they are being used improperly. See our page on Warning Notices for more information. If the container(s) continue to be contaminated, we will meet with you to “right-size” your service with the correct container types and frequencies. Be a good steward for the environment by recycling the right way!

Because Waste Resources bills commercial customers monthly in advance, you will receive an invoice at the beginning of the month for that month’s service. More about billing and payments can be found here.

Not sure where to start? We do! Contact our office to schedule an on-site evaluation to determine the best level of service for your needs that will maximize recycling and be the most cost-effective.
