If you can recycle more and "trash" less, you can save money by getting a smaller garbage cart. Call Waste Management (925) 837-3356 to exchange your cart size. One free cart exchange per year.
Residential curbside services include weekly recyclables, compostables, and motor oil collection at no additional charge. The standard recycling and compost carts are 64-gallons each.
