Green Waste Questions

Q Can cactus be dumped at the County landfills and if so what is the charge?
A

You can bring the cactus to the county landfill and pay for green waste disposal. The minimum charge for green waste disposal is $11.00 and additional fees will be charged $41.91 per ton for loads over 800 lbs.

There are green waste processors throughout the county that charge lower fees than the county landfill.  For a current list of green waste recyclers visit Earth911 or for other recycling related links try: http://www.rivcowm.org/recycling/recycling_resources.html or our Resource Links page.

 

 

Q

A We will accept them at the landfill for disposal.  http://www.rivcowm.org/landfill_info/landfill_fees.html
If you are looking for assistance in having them removed from your property or you feel that they are a road hazard, then you might contact the county department of Transportation Land Management http://www.tlma.co.riverside.ca.us/trans/index.html  you might also contact your county supervisor office to see if there is a community clean-up schedule for the area you are referring to.
