Recycling Hauler Changes for Multi-unit Properties
Starting November 1, 5+ unit properties in Saint Paul will have a new hauler, FCC Environmental. Tenants, owners, and property managers can expect the same level of service with no interruptions and no changes to their collection days. At this time, there is no action required by property owners.
There are no changes in recycling or garbage services for 1-4-unit properties.
The City contracts with private haulers to provide recycling services to all residential properties. The cost of this service is assessed to the property owner’s Ramsey County Property Taxes. If you own or manage an apartment building and currently contract with a private hauler for recycling services, please contact us. The City also offers free recycling assistance for apartments, such as, “what to recycle” handouts and posters in 10 languages, in-unit recycling totes, and grants for waste reduction projects.
