Simi Valley provides curbside trash, recycling, and green waste collection through a contracted waste hauler. Residents must separate materials into designated bins and follow collection day schedules and placement requirements.
Simi Valley provides weekly curbside collection of trash (black/gray bin), recyclables (blue bin), and green/organic waste (green bin) through its contracted waste hauler. Collection days vary by neighborhood; residents receive a schedule upon service setup. Bins must be placed at the curb by 6 AM on collection day with lids closed and handles facing the street. Recyclable materials include paper, cardboard, plastic bottles and containers, glass, and metal cans. Green waste bins accept yard trimmings, food scraps, and compostable paper per SB 1383 requirements. Hazardous waste, electronics, and bulky items require special disposal through the city's household hazardous waste program or scheduled bulky pickup.
Contaminating recycling bins with non-recyclable materials may result in the hauler refusing pickup and issuing contamination notices. Repeated contamination may result in additional fees. Placing bins out before allowed hours or after pickup may result in Code Enforcement notices.
