Wrap up the holidays, not the landfill

As you enjoy twinkling lights, decorated trees, gift exchanges, and festive gatherings, remember that recycling helps keep the holidays merry while reducing waste. Here are some easy ways to keep things bright and responsible this season.


Box it like a boss: Turn those leftover delivery boxes into a mini fortress or simply flatten them for recycling. Drop them off at one of our cardboard recycling sites to save space and keep your bins under control. Please be sure to flatten your boxes, first.

Sip, sort, and score: Gather your empty plastic bottles, glass jars, and aluminum cans, then take them to a buyback center to reclaim deposits. Check which containers qualify so you can get the most from your recycling efforts.

Tech the halls (responsibly): Make room for new devices by recycling old electronics. You can drop off computers, monitors, and other equipment at the landfill or schedule a convenient doorstep pickup through our program.

The great battery roundup: Keep old batteries out of the trash by taping the ends and dropping them off at one of Placer County's designated collection spots, including locations right here in Roseville.

Tree-mendous farewell: When your holiday tree has served its time, give it a green goodbye. Cut it into sections for green waste pickup and drop it off at a local site.

Grease, please (not down the drain): After cooking, store leftover fats, oils, and grease in a sealable container, like an old jar, and we'll pick it up for free. Keeping grease out of your sink prevents clogs and protects our waterways.
