Berkeley is gradually replacing older residential recycling carts through a neighborhood-by-neighborhood program funded by the City of Berkeley’s Zero Waste Division. If your cart is scheduled for replacement, you will receive a notice in the mail and a new cart will be delivered before your collection day. Please place your old cart at the curb on your next pickup day so it can be removed and recycled.

For questions about cart replacement, call the Ecology Center Recycling Hotline at (510) 527-5555, Monday–Friday, 8:30 AM–4:30 PM.
