The City of Redmond, Washington, has announced a major shift in its waste management services. Starting in 2026, Recology will be taking over as the new provider for the city's garbage, recycling, and compost services. The switch is said to offer not only competitive pricing but also to introduce a set of enhancements aimed at boosting the sustainability of the city's solid waste services.
A closer look at the deal with Recology reveals that residents can expect to see expanded curbside collection, among other benefits. A new retail store location will be established in Redmond, and two full-time Waste Zero staff members will be employed to support the community's sustainable practices.
Interested locals can learn more on the city's website, where a dedicated page for the Recology transition has been set up. The page provides resources and information on what the changes entail and how they may benefit the Redmond community. Also listed are the various sustainable practices that Recology plans to introduce as part of their contract. The Facebook post notes, "this new contract also enhances the sustainability of solid waste services in Redmond."
