Proudly Serving All Residents and Communities of San Joaquin County
Solid Waste is a division of the Public Works Department of San Joaquin County. The division
oversees the operations of several solid waste facilities and sanitary landfills, administers state mandated waste diversion programs, and provides and arranges for a wide range of services and outreach to the general public so as to conserve resources,
and preserve public health and safety and the environment.
Public Services include: mandatory residential refuse collection and
commercial recycling; a variety of landfill diversion programs for Agricultural Plastics, Tires, Oil, Sharps, Medicines, Mattresses, Appliances, Construction
and Demolition Debris, Organics, and countless other products; and education and outreach to the general public on how to properly dispose or recycle any given material.
Facilities include County owned and operated Lovelace Materials Recovery Facility and Transfer Station, and North County Recycling Center and Sanitary Landfill, as well as owned but privately operated Foothill Sanitary Landfill and Hazardous Household Waste Facility. The
division also maintains the closed landfill facilities at Corral Hollow and Harney Lane. The active facilities are key locations in a network that reaches every County resident and business to dispose of nearly all man-made products that can't be recycled
or diverted.
