Trash & Recycling

City of Riverside Trash & Recycling

Public Works trash services promote a clean, healthy and beautiful environment through curbside and drop-off trash collections.

Trash, green waste and recyclables are collected on regularly scheduled days of the week and special pick-up services for bulky items, appliances and used oil may be scheduled by residents.

Curbside services are provided by the city or Burrtec Waste Industries, Inc. for residential customers. Commercial trash services are provided by city-approved haulers.

Drop-off services for electronic waste, bulky items, and other special disposal needs are provided for residents on a regularly-scheduled basis through the CURE program.

The State of California requires cities to attain a target diversion rate based on the number of residents and employees within each city. In 2007, the city exceeded the goal and continues to promote recycling through business, multi-family complexes and residential education and outreach.
