Certified Recyclable Material Collectors
To assist facilities that are not serviced by the City of San Diego in
choosing a recycling service provider, the City has developed a certification
process for private recycling collectors. Certification is voluntary.
Certified recyclers will be listed on the City's website and in outreach
materials related to the ordinance.
Certification is valid for up to two years. To become certified, recyclers
must complete an application, pay a $130 application fee, provide proof
of insurance and agree to comply with the requirements in section 66.0714
(PDF: 53K) of the Municipal Code.
Recyclers must keep collection vehicles and containers clean and well-maintained.
Containers must be equipped with close fitting lids, be leak-proof, rodent-proof
and clearly identified as recycling containers with the name and number
of the recycler and a list of materials accepted. Recyclers are also required
to submit an annual report to the Environmental Services Department. If
you would like to apply for certification, fill out the application and
submit the required documentation along with the $130 processing fee.
Please make check or money order payable to "City Treasurer"
