Curbside Trash Collection Services#
Fort Collins is currently considering a contracted system for residential trash and recycling collection with the goals of increasing opportunities for composting and recycling, providing equitable, consistent pricing across the community, as well as increasing safety and reducing emissions by reducing the number of trash trucks on residential streets.
City Council will consider whether to move forward with a newly released draft contract with Republic Services on February 21, 2023.
Learn more about the details of the draft contract, offered services, pricing and about opportunities to attend virtual information sessions at the project website.
Plastic Bag Policies#
State and local leaders have made plastic pollution in Colorado a priority, and policies are now being implemented to reduce single-use plastics, starting with plastic bags at large retailers.
