The City of West Fargo has contracted Waste Management, Inc. to provide single-stream recycling (SSR) for West Fargo residents. SSR simplifies the process of collecting and sorting recyclable materials, increasing participation rates by up to 50 percent. In a single-stream recycling system, residents place all recyclables in a recycling cart for pickup, and no longer need to separate these materials.
Waste Management, Inc. will supply and maintain one 96-gallon recycling container for each residential customer. These containers should only be used for recycling materials and not extra garbage. Extra recycling containers are available upon request for a one-time fee of $60 and an additional monthly fee of $3.15, which will be charged to the customer’s utility bill.

In addition to the SSR curbside program, West Fargo residents may drop off their recycling at:

Have you ever heard the phrase, “one bad apple spoils the bunch?” The same is true for recycling, where one non-recyclable item can spoil an entire batch of otherwise good materials.

This site is here to educate you on this important topic, and to offer tools you can use to make recycling sustainable for future generations.
