Service Guides & Instructions
WM provides a 96-, 64- or 35-gallon cart (green or dark gray cart with black lid) 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.
Your trash cart will be serviced every other week on your regular service day.
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.
Contact WM at 760-463-6024 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.
Acceptable Items: General household trash like chip bags, plastic bags, diapers, garden hoses, broken ceramic dishes and pots, foam containers and textiles.
Non-Acceptable Items: Construction waste, auto parts, tires, household hazardous waste (batteries, paint, oil, household cleaners), medical or electronic waste and food scraps. Consider recycling and donate gently used items to local non-profit organizations for additional chance at life.
Have questions about your bill, need to request a container repair, or adjust your communication preferences? Convenient My WM self-serve capabilities are available to help you manage your services.
