We manage the collection and disposal of municipal solid waste, curbside recycling, residential yard and bulk waste, and oversee city-approved containers. The trash must be bagged and then placed into container with the gray lid.The recyclable materials must be placed loose into the container with the green lid. It's Hazardous, and It's in Your House. Household hazardous waste (HHW) is hazardous material that has already been used or can no longer be used. Household maintenance products like paint, thinners and glues make up more than a third of the HHW in daily garbage. Waste management or waste disposal includes the processes and actions required to manage waste from its inception to its final disposal. It shall be the duty of all persons to dispose of or otherwise manage their solid waste in a legal manner. The universal waste regulations do require that the materials be managed in a way that prevents releases to the environment.
