Household Hazardous Waste (HHW)Sacramento County operates a facility that accepts your household hazardous waste including propane tanks, auto batteries, household batteries, and needles. For details, visit SacGreenTeam.com.
Bulky Waste Pick UpCustomers receive once-per-calendar-year bulky waste pick up included in the basic rate. For details or to schedule an appointment, call Customer Service (916) 875-5555, 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, Mon – Fri, or visit SacGreenTeam.com.
Cart PlacementPlace carts at least three (3) feet away from each other. Carts placed too close to each other require drivers to leave their trucks to provide service. This greatly reduces efficiency and may lead to increased service costs.
Keep carts a minimum of six (6) feet away from cars, boats, and other stationary objects to avoid risk of private property damage.
