Q: How do I know how much garbage my business generates?
A: The total amount depends on the size of your garbage dumpster and how often it's picked up. Contact EDCO (see sidebar) for help estimating your service level.
Q: My business is located in a shopping center. Who is responsible for recycling?
A: Recycling is the responsibility of whoever pays for garbage collection. If your business is billed by EDCO, you are responsible for setting up a recycling program.
Q: What if I lease or rent out commercial property?
A: If a business generates four (4) or more cubic yards of waste per week, the property owner must require tenants to separate waste and recyclables.
Q: Who should I contact if I need more information or have questions?
A: Contact the Public Works Department for help getting started or improving your recycling program.
