Allied Waste Services is pleased to introduce weekly trash, recycling and yard waste service beginning Monday, March 31, 2008!

Many residents of Daly City and Colma have already received a grey trash cart and green yard waste cart. Blue recycling carts - replacing your existing recycling tubs - will be delivered beginning March 17. Allied Waste is asking all residents to place their recycling tubs at the curbside on their last recycle collection day in March. Allied Waste will remove the tubs and leave the blue cart in their place.

How the new service works:
This new and improved service makes curbside collection as easy as 1-2-3. By March 28, you'll have received a trash, recycling and yard waste cart that you can set out for weekly service. There is no longer a need to remember which week is your recycle collection; in fact you can recycle that A or B week calendar! All your non-recyclable waste must be placed in the new dark grey garbage cart Allied Waste has delivered - plastic bags and traditional trash cans can no longer be serviced. The carts are serviced by an "automated arm" that the driver controls from either inside the cab or at the side of the truck. The arm grabs the cart with its clamp, squeezes and lifts the cart from the ground to dump its contents into the opening of the truck. The current source-separated recycling program will be replaced with a new, state-of-the-art, singlestream recycling program! All recycling can now be placed in the same cart and set out for collection, no more separating. The recycling will now be separated by machines for processing, all you have to do is place the items in the cart. Remember, the more your household recycles, the more diversion credit the City earns from the State.

The new yard waste cart is available for you to recycle your grass clippings, plants, tree branches, etc. Please see the accepted yard waste items.

Don't forget about the extras!
Allied Waste is now accepting household batteries, compact fluorescent lights (CFLs) and oil filters at the curbside. Please place these items in separate, clear "ziplock" bags, appropriately labeled so your driver knows what's being recycled. Place bags on the lid of your recycle cart for collection.

Please recycle motor oil at the curb next to your recycling cart. Remember to place the used oil in a sealed, one-gallon jug (plastic jug, #1-#7) and labeled "Oil."

If you have any questions about this new service, please call Allied Waste Services at (650) 756-1130, Monday-Friday 7 a.m. - 5 p.m. If you would like to request a different cart size(s), an Allied Waste representative will submit your change and new carts will be delivered beginning May 19.
