CalMAX is a networking catalog designed to help businesses find markets for non-hazardous materials they have traditionally discarded. CalMAX helps businesses, industries, and institutions save resources and money. The old saying, "One man's trash is another man's treasure" works for businesses, schools, and industry, too!
For more information visit the California Integrated Waste Management Board at www.ciwmb.ca.gov/CalMAX/.
All users of San Joaquin County (County) disposal sites listed below must pay a cash disposal fee, except for those who have been authorized to use the Prepaid Deposit Plan:
Foothill Sanitary Landfill
Lovelace Materials Recovery Facility and Transfer Station
North County Recycling Center and Sanitary Landfill
The Prepaid Deposit Plan requires that non-cash customers pay an advance deposit in order to use a County disposal site without paying cash for disposal fees. This enables the customer to "draw" from the account during the month as waste is brought to the site.
The County will keep a monthly record of the waste quantities disposed and the corresponding disposal fees. At the end of each month, the County will subtract the total monthly disposal fees from the advance deposit. Payment is due in the Solid Waste office by the end of the month in which the bill is submitted.
The amount of deposit required (for each disposal site used) is determined by the following schedule:
|
Average Monthly Charge |
Prepaid Deposit Required |
| $ 0 - $50 | $150 |
| 50 - 150 | 450 |
| 150 - 300 | 600 |
| 300 - 500 | 1,000 |
| 500 - 1,000 | 2,000 |
| Over $1,000 | Minimum of $3,000 OR average monthly charge rounded to nearest $100 |
|
The County will periodically review the monthly disposal fees and adjust the amount of advance deposit accordingly. Customers will not be allowed to use County disposal sites on a non-cash basis if the advance deposit funds have been used up or have habitually fallen below the required deposit amount.
