Waste Audit Results

Thank you for putting waste in the right place. Recent results of an external audit of recycling material showed that Chase residents are doing their part to reduce contamination and divert waste from the landfill.

With a curbside recycling contamination rate of 2.6%, residents have demonstrated their strong commitment to improving recycling rates and waste management practices. The results also highlight the importance of ongoing internal audits by our crews, which guide efforts aimed at reducing contamination.

Small changes can make a big impact. The collection and disposal of waste requires money, resources, and limited landfill space. By taking a few simple steps to know before you throw, you can help our community reduce costs, maximize resources and preserve our natural environment.
