The City negotiates with a provider for solid waste, recycling and yard waste collection on behalf of the City's residents. Following a 2006 request for bid, a new contract with Allied Waste (formerly Rabanco) calling for increased recycling of plastics numbers 1-7, electronic scrap, plastic bags, and food waste recycling was negotiated. Allied Waste garbage trucks will also have particulate traps, and the City is working on a project to require that the trucks use a mixture of 80% ultra low sulfur fuel and 20% biodiesel.
