Residential Services
Standard residential services are provided to the City of Monterey using a 40 gallon brown wheeled cart for garbage, a 65 gallon green wheeled cart for yard waste, and a 65 gallon blue wheeled cart for recycling (35 gallon wheeled recycle carts are available for those who request them).
The monthly service charge for standard service is $17.34 per month. There are several variations to this basic service that allow customers to select containers that best meet their needs. Learn more about services and billing.
We also offer motor oil, other hazardous waste and large item collection. Learn about electronic waste recycling too.
Multi-family units can rent 90 gallon wheeled carts or use large metal containers ranging in size from 2 to 6 cubic yards. Multifamily recycling usually involves using 64 or 90 gallon recycle carts.
