I am a county resident; can I use the City of Durango for my trash and recycling collections?

No, but you can drop off your recycling. The City of Durango offers curbside trash and recycling collection services only to city residents. County residents can bring their recycling to the Durango Recycling Center to drop off for a small fee, or contact your service provider to see if they offer curbside recycling.

County residents must pay a fee to drop off recycling because they do not pay for recycling service on their utility bills.
