Residential Waste Service in Lake Sherwood, CA

WM provides a 96- or 32-gallon cart (blue) to collect trash. Rates vary based on cart size selected. Find your specific collection day and view your service ETA by signing up for a My WM account.

Place cart at the curb with wheels against the curb by 6 a.m. on collection days and remove same day. Keep cart at least four feet from parked cars, mailboxes and other obstacles that may prevent WM team members from picking it up.

Contact WM at 800-675-1171 to set up new service.

All trash should be bagged. Don’t overfill your cart – the lid must close tightly. Overflow and materials outside may be subject to additional charge or will not be collected.

Beginning January 1, 2022, SB 1383 requires Californians to sort and separately collect food scraps, yard debris and food-soiled paper from trash and recycling. This means food scraps are no longer acceptable in your trash container. For more information on SB 1383, visit https://www.wm.com/us/en/sb1383. Acceptable items include standard household trash like chip bags, plastic bags, & textiles (donate if lightly used). Non-acceptable items include construction waste, auto parts, tires, household hazardous waste (paint, oil, household cleaners), medical or electronic waste and food scraps.

Contamination occurs when non-acceptable items are placed in your cart. To avoid potential contamination charges or non-collection, and ensure your recyclables have a shot at becoming new products, it’s important that only the right items make their way.
