Recycling & Zero Waste

  • Starting in 2022, Recology Mountain View will no longer pick-up extra trash bags without an extra garbage sticker. If you regularly have extra trash, contact Recology (650-967-3034) to get a larger trash cart at an additional charge. For occasional extra trash, you can purchase extra garbage stickers ($6 each) from most local Safeway stores or the Mountain View Recycling Center at 935 Terra Bella Avenue.  
  • Check out our FAQ sheet for more information about the 2021 new split recycling cart project.
  • Visit the Virtual Outreach Table for answers to your frequently asked recycling and zero waste questions.
