Most debris from a remodel or a cleanout is welcome in your container. California draws the line at anything hazardous, and that list is longer here than in many states.
CalRecycle keeps a list of items banned from the trash that includes fluorescent lamps and tubes, batteries of every size, latex and oil-based paint, solvents, pesticides, antifreeze, motor oil and filters, tires, asbestos, treated wood, and propane cylinders. Electronics such as TVs, monitors, computers, and microwaves are banned as well, along with mercury devices like old thermostats.
The landfill adds its own rules. Toland Road Landfill takes municipal solid waste only and accepts no hazardous waste at all. Bulky or awkward material, including large concrete blocks, big tree stumps, wire, fence netting, and irrigation tubing, is billed as hard to handle at $147.63 per ton under the District's current rates, well above regular refuse. Car tires are charged at $8.61 each.
Tell your account manager about anything on those lists before you load it, and we'll sort out a separate route for it.
