Deadlines Approaching for San Diego Trash Service

Important Deadlines for City of San Diego Trash Service Approaching 

• Eligible single-family homes: If you receive City-provided trash service, you have likely already received a mailer with a unique code and instructions to create an account at wasteportal.sandiego.gov. This is where you select the size of your trash container and enroll in service. If you cannot locate your mailer or the login information inside, please contact 858-694-7000 or trash@sandiego.gov. The deadline to make your selections is September 30, 2025.
• Ineligible properties: Homes that no longer qualify for City service must contract with a private hauler. Mailers sent to these property owners include instructions and a list of approved providers. For additional information on transitioning, please see sandiego.gov/trash-service-updates or contact 619-533-4440 or wasteservice@sandiego.gov.
