Solid Waste Management
Since 1978, Novato Sanitary District and its franchise service providers (first Novato Disposal and now Recology) have maintained the lowest garbage rates in Marin County. In 1982, we established the first curbside recycling program in Marin County. We are proud to continue to offer the best prices and most innovative service in the county.Zero Waste Plan to Achieve Radical Increases in Recycling and Composting at Minimal Cost to Novato Customers.In 2011, Novato Sanitary District amended its Franchise Agreement to make major progress toward achieving Zero Waste Goals at minimal cost to Novato residents. Novato Sanitary District is the first community in Marin to formally incorporate zero waste goals in a franchise agreement and have a specific plan to achieve them. We are very proud of that. The contract requires our franchise recycling, composting and garbage collection provider, currently Recology, to meet a series of performance goals, including achieving 80% diversion of waste to recycling by 2025. Through our franchise recycling, compost and garbage collection providers, we have taken steps to reach zero waste goals:
Low Garbage Rates. Our customers are charged among the lowest in the county— about 20% to 40% below what most other neighboring communities are paying.
