Pasco County operates single-stream curbside recycling collecting paper, cardboard, glass, aluminum/steel cans, and plastics #1 and #2. Contaminated carts may be skipped. Florida sets a statewide 75% recycling goal under FL §403.7032.
Pasco County Utilities operates single-stream curbside recycling on the same weekly schedule as trash, collecting mixed paper, cardboard, glass bottles/jars, aluminum and steel cans, and plastics #1 (PET) and #2 (HDPE). Plastic bags, film, Styrofoam, food waste, textiles, and electronics are not accepted in curbside carts — market conditions have tightened what Pasco's processor (Waste Connections) accepts over the past several years. Contaminated carts are tagged and skipped. Florida Statute §403.7032 establishes a 75% statewide recycling goal, though actual rates remain lower. Yard waste in Pasco is collected separately in some zones and processed into mulch. Multifamily properties above unit thresholds may have commercial recycling obligations. Cities (Dade City, Zephyrhills, New Port Richey, Port Richey) run independent programs with varying accepted materials.
Contaminated cart: tagged and skipped. Repeat contamination: warning, then $25 to $100 fine. Commercial non-compliance may trigger utility service review.
