At WM we're proud to take care of our Palmdale neighbors — and our planet — with residential trash pickup, organics and recycling services.
The city has chosen WM to provide waste pickup, but you'll need your own WM profile to ensure proper service and billing. Enter your address and we'll help you get set up.
WM Palmdale observes the following holidays: New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
If your service day falls on or follows one of these observed holidays, your service will be delayed by one day for that week only.
Quick access to My WM and more tools to manage your service.
Place cart on the street 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.
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. Visit What Is SB 1383? for more information.
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.
