Valley Waste Management Holiday Schedule

Garbage and recycling collection in San Ramon through Valley Waste Management does not occur on the following holidays:

  • Labor Day
  • Thanksgiving Day
  • Christmas Day
  • New Year’s Day

If your service falls on or after these holidays, your pickup will occur one day later through Saturday of that week.

Curbside Garbage Collection

Those residents receiving curbside services should place all containers (garbage, recycling, yard trimmings and waste oil) at the curb before 5:30 a.m. on their regular service day.  The containers should be placed squarely facing the street without blocking the sidewalk, and allow 2-3 feet of clearance on all sides so that the automated truck arms can pick them up.

Four (4) sizes of residential garbage containers are available from Valley Waste Management:

2008 Garbage Rates
Current Rate/Month:curbside recycling

20-gallon  $ 17.57
35-gallon  $ 21.58
64-gallon  $ 37.67
96-gallon  $ 60.57

If you can recycle more (see below) and "trash" less, you can save money by getting a smaller trash container.  Call Valley Waste Management (837-3356) if you want a different container or for other services.

Recycling Upgrade
If you regularly overfill your 64-gallon recycling cart, you may trade it in for a 96-gallon cart at no extra charge.

Additional Green Waste Cart
An additional 64-gallon Green waste cart service is available at no extra charge.

recycleCurbside Recycling Collection

Valley Waste Management provides an extensive curbside recycling program under contract with the City of San Ramon.  Recyclables are collected in a 64-gallon cart on wheels.

Also, do follow the Container Recyclable GuidelinesContamination of recyclables with non-acceptable materials decreases the value of the load, and may ultimately cause rates to go up to compensate for lost revenue.
