Commercial Recycling

Commercial Recycling

The City of Victorville’s Environmental Programs Division helps businesses recycle correctly through education, outreach, and program support. Proper recycling helps conserve resources, reduce landfill disposal, and keep recyclable materials in circulation.

Items Accepted in the Recycling Stream

What Goes in the Recycling Container

Accepted recyclables include:

  • Clean mixed paper
  • Newspapers and magazines
  • Junk mail and envelopes
  • Corrugated cardboard
  • Glass bottles and jars
  • Tin and aluminum cans
  • Aluminum foil
  • Plastic bottles, jars, tubs, and trays

Recyclables should be clean and placed in the proper recycling container.

Cardboard and Overflow

Please break down cardboard boxes before placing them in the recycling container. This helps maximize space and reduce overflow. If recyclable overflow becomes a recurring issue, additional service may be needed. As a business, you also have the option of self-hauling excess recyclables and cardboard to the Recycling Drop-Off Center at 15164 Anacapa Road, Victorville, CA 92392.

  • Trash
  • Food waste

  • Plastic bags
  • Styrofoam
  • Grease or liquids

Per Victorville Municipal Code Chapters 6.36 and 6.37, recyclable and organic materials must be kept separate from trash and placed in their proper designated containers.
