Spring Clean Up

Each spring Recology will be accepting items for the Spring Clean Up collection. Each residential customer may place out up to 1.5 cubic yards of extra brush items during the May, Spring Clean Up week. This is in addition to the Brush Collection service. Recology will be advertising the Spring Clean Up in advance so that all Residential customers will be able to take advantage of this free service.,

Once you've used up your 2 free annual collections, we will provide further services for an additional fee. Contact us to schedule an appointment.
