Auburn Commercial Recycling Collection
| Single Stream Recycling Controls Garbage Costs! |
Approximately ninety percent (90%) of the material collected from businesses comes from garbage containers; only ten percent (10%) comes from recycling containers. On the other hand, only 45% of the material from residences is garbage; 55% is recycling.
Waste Management provides resources to encourage recycling, including:

| Recycle Container Options |
Recycling containers are offered in 35, 64, and 96-gallon cart sizes and 1 to 8-yard dumpster sizes at no additional cost with garbage service.
Larger roll-off boxes are available for a fee. Call the WM Sales Department at 1-800-592-9995 for more information and pricing.
Extra Recycling: Place clean recyclables that do not fit in your cart or dumpster in a 35-gallon can with handles or cardboard boxes (limit 2'x3'). Mark "Recycle". If you frequently have extra recyclables, please call, and increase your recycle container size.
Containers Out by 5 am
Collection times may vary as routing schedules change, and so it is very important to have all containers at the street and/or dumpsters available by 6 am. We appreciate your cooperation.
Place two feet apart from other containers and five feet from any structure with lid facing street.
Place containers out in such a way that does not restrict the reasonable and safe use of the street, sidewalk, or bicycle lanes by pedestrians, bicyclists, and automobiles.
Remove containers from public property no later than 24 hours after your collection day.
