Solid Waste Department Collection Fee
The Solid Waste Department recycles all the City’s green waste into mulch useful in various applications ranging from land application to combining them with biosolids to produce compost. The Department also recycles large and small tires into tire bales. These bales can be used in various ways. Carlsbad has used them extensively as filler for erosion control structures, saving a lot on materials alone.
Yard and Bulk Waste Collection
The City of Carlsbad Solid Waste Department has a program for the collection of yard waste and other acceptable bulky waste. (Solid Waste Services)
* For information on acceptable types of waste and collection procedures, see the Trash Collection page.
