GreenTeam of San José provides recycling and garbage collection service to all apartment and condominium complexes in San José. Your monthly service fee is based on:

  1. The frequency of collection.
  2. The number and sizes of all the garbage dumpsters in use at your complex.
  3. The distances and numbers of containers (garbage or recycling) that need to be pushed by the driver into an accessible position for collection.

Garbage rates include once a week collection of recycling bins or carts. The more your residents recycle, the more successful you can be at controlling garbage service fees. Recycling is easy and helps save resources. All recyclables go together into the same bin. See Garbage & Recycling on this website for a complete list of materials that can be recycled by residents in apartments and condominiums.
