Residential Trash and Recycling Services in the Rowland Heights Franchise Area
United Pacific Waste & Recycling Services is the only residential franchise hauler in the Rowland Heights Community.
Three 95-gallon carts are serviced once a week for single-family and duplex homes.
It is critical with today's increasing environmental requirements, dwindling landfill space and escalating operating costs that we shift our way of thinking. Consider conservation, healthy lifestyles, avoid excess and recycle.
A Guided Tour
The very first step in the recycling process is source separation. Source separation is when you keep all wet waste separate from the recyclables. To make it easy for you to separate wet waste from all recyclables UPW has provided carts for this purpose.
The Green Cart is for yard waste only. Please be careful, if you mix wet waste, food, or anything that touched food or trash in the green cart, we will not be able to recycle the yard waste.
The Blue Cart is for clean plastic, glass, bottles and cans, paper such as magazines, newspaper, junk mail and flattened cardboard. Please no food waste in the blue cart because it will contaminate the recyclables.
The Brown Cart is for solid waste.
| United Pacific Waste offers its residential customers a new and improved waste collection and recycling program. The new program will help to reduce, reuse and recycle. | ||
