At Your Door℠ Special Collection Service

This service is available to single and multi-family homes that are covered under our current Waste Management agreement. This service offers a safe and compliant disposal option for those items that cannot be placed into the regular trash, some of which are potentially hazardous materials that every household accumulates. Waste Management makes it easy for residents to dispose of these items, by collecting materials at the door – safely, easily and responsibly.

Recycle old electronics, used motor oil, old cans of paint and more. It's easy and convenient!

Through this program, you can schedule a collection of these materials right from your home.  A wide variety of ordinary household products are accepted through this service.  The most common items include:
