In unincorporated Snohomish County, certificated haulers collect residential garbage under WUTC-set rates. In the recycling service zone, single-family garbage service is offered only combined with recycling, and recycling is collected weekly, preferably on the same day as garbage.
SCC 7.42.040 requires each solid waste collection company to provide defined services by zone. In the recycling service zone, single-family and multi-family garbage collection is offered only in combination with recycling; single-family customers must be offered weekly mini-can, one-can, two-can and three-can service, monthly options, and recycling-only service. Recycling for single-family homes is collected weekly, preferably the same day as garbage, and multi-family at least every two weeks. Rates for these services are set by the Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission, not the county.
Service standards are enforced by the county solid waste management division against certificated haulers; the WUTC regulates rates and hauler certificates.
