[City of San Diego] Trash Service Eligibility Appeal Form

Eligibility Appeal Form

Properties that do NOT meet the City requirements for collection by City forces include:

Residential properties with five or more residences on a single lot.
Mixed-use and commercial properties.
Properties located on private streets or within gated communities.
Properties whose access requires the crossing of a private street or is serviced on a private street, even if the property address is on a public street.
Properties with insufficient space to store enough City-issued containers needed to hold all trash, recycling and organics generated by the property between weekly collections.
Properties whose entire complex is not eligible for City collection, and some residences in the complex require the use of a private hauler.

If you believe your property is ineligible for City waste collection services for one or more reasons, please fill out the form below.

Please note:

Submitting an Appeal does not automatically grant approval. Each submittal will be reviewed by the Environmental Services Department and you will be contacted directly with the results of the review.
Appeals may only be submitted from the property owner. Submittals from the tenant will not be accepted.
