Garbage & Recycling

 

Stockton has a comprehensive waste collection system designed to reduce the amount of trash sent to our landfills. However, no system is complete without active participants.

 

Residents and businesses play a vital role in making Stockton's waste collection system work by using their carts or bins to separate their recyclable materials, green waste/food waste and trash.
