Bostonia's trash and recycling collection is provided by private non-exclusive franchise haulers, not the County. County Code requires every residential collection route to offer at least one weekly collection. Haulers must also collect designated recyclables in the unincorporated area.
San Diego County uses a non-exclusive franchise system: several private haulers may compete for customers in the unincorporated area. SEC. 68.562(b) requires that every collector operating a residential route provide not less than one regular weekly collection to all customers, with commercial/industrial service as needed. SEC. 68.562(f) requires collectors to provide collection of designated recyclables in the unincorporated areas. Residents pick a franchise hauler (or, with County registration, self-haul). Actual pickup day depends on the hauler serving Bostonia.
Collectors operate under Solid Waste Management Agreements that the Director, Department of Public Works may suspend or revoke for violations; the collector must cease operations within ten days of notice unless reinstated or a hearing is requested.
