The Environmental Services Core Service Area encompasses the responsibility of
ensuring that our waste is managed in a way that is safe, sustainable, and
environmentally responsible.
We are committed to carrying out the sustainable values that reside at the
heart of our dedication to the people of Los Angeles County through the
implementation of community-focused Trash Collection Services, Waste Diversion
Programs, and Landfill Capacity Management.
Public Works has made tremendous strides over the years to ensure the County’s
sustainability by implementing a variety of waste management programs to
promote recycling and waste reduction, as well as fostering alternatives to
landfills, including conversion technologies. Our solid waste management team
is committed to conserving environmental resources, by providing the
opportunities to assist residents and businesses in reducing waste, and
cultivating clean and healthy communities for generations to come.
It is our enduring adherence to our core values that has positioned us to stand
as a regional leader and advocate for projects and policies that will help
promote a sustainable waste management infrastructure and
environmentally-conscious community.
It is our firm belief that together, we can lead, inspire and support our
communities toward a healthy, waste-free future.
