In observance of the Independence Day holiday, employees of Santa Clara Valley Disposal will be taking the day off on Thursday, July 4. As a result, in Fillmore the company will collect residential customers’ trash, recycling and yard/organic waste one day later than usual that week – on Saturday, July 6, instead of on Fillmore’s usual Friday pickup day. The regular schedule will resume the following week.

Remember that residential customers can place all three carts curbside every week, as Santa Clara Valley Disposal collects all waste weekly – including food waste, which is recyclable. All food waste should be placed in closed paper or plastic bags and the bags should be tossed in the organics waste cart.

It’s important to recycle your food waste every week. In 2022, the state of California began to require the diversion of food waste from landfills, and your efforts are needed. Even if you only have food waste bags and no yard waste, you should still put the food waste bags in your organics waste cart and take it to the curb every week for pickup.
