Recycling in Anaheim, California

Anaheim contracts its solid waste services to Republic Services, so bulky item collection, container exchanges, rentals, and extra pickups all run through Republic rather than city crews. Household hazardous waste takes a separate path: a free collection center on Blue Gum Street, plus 31 used-oil drop-off locations around the city. Anaheim Fire & Rescue, not public works, runs the used oil and hazardous waste program.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who provides trash and recycling service in Anaheim?

The city contracts with Republic Services. Bulky item collection for large household items that will not fit in containers, container exchange for carts that are damaged, worn out or tagged with graffiti, 3 to 30-yard container rentals for residential cleanups and construction debris, and extra weekly pickups for a nominal fee all go through Republic Services Customer Service at 714-238-2444.

Where does household hazardous waste go in Anaheim?

Chemicals can be disposed of free of charge at the Household Hazardous Waste Collection Center at 1071 N. Blue Gum Street in Anaheim. The program is maintained by the Anaheim Fire & Rescue Hazardous Materials Section together with CalRecycle. For more information call 714-834-6752. See our household hazardous waste guide.

Where can I drop off used motor oil in Anaheim?

Anaheim has 31 used oil drop-off locations; call 714-765-4048 to find one near you. Residents can also reserve one free used oil container kit per household per calendar year, which includes two shop rags, a recycling container, and a center locations card, by emailing asolano@anaheim.net or calling the Used Oil Hotline at 714-765-4154. See our motor oil guide.

What are the rules if I haul my own waste?

Under SB 1383, self-hauling means transporting waste generated on-site instead of using the city's collection service with Republic Services. Self-haulers must source separate all recyclable materials and organic waste generated on-site and transport those materials to a permitted solid waste facility, operation, activity, or property that processes or recovers recyclable materials and organic waste.

Which state recycling laws apply in Anaheim?

AB 341 is the mandatory commercial recycling law, AB 1826 covers mandatory organic recycling, and SB 1383 provides education and outreach on organics recycling and edible food donation. Together they support California's goals for recycling, composting, and source reduction of solid waste. See our food waste guide for what organics collection covers.
