The department has implemented a Solid Waste Window Sticker Program for customer identification and access to the waste system, with specific guidelines on covered waste types and additional charges for certain materials. The program issues windshield stickers annually, with the option to purchase extras, and replacements are available for a fee. The stickers must be displayed on the lower left corner of the windshield. The department is also seeking proposals from recycling contractors for its waste management recycling program.
