From the bins at your curb to the City's sewer and storm drain systems, we provide the tools to make sustainable living a natural part of your day. Whether you're composting food scraps, dropping off used batteries at a SAFE Center, capturing rain water for your garden, volunteering at #ShineLA or reporting illegal dumping, you're the reason LA is glowing.

When you toss your fruit peels, coffee grounds, and leftovers into the green bin, you aren’t just getting rid of waste - you’re creating "Black Gold" (compost!). This nutrient-rich treasure helps our LA parks and gardens thrive while keeping methane out of landfills. Not sure if your "lucky charms" (or leftovers) are compostable? Ask me! 🍀 I’m available 24/7 in 16 languages to help you sort it out.

Exciting news! The Paul Koretz Westwood Greenway Project is officially open to the public! The project will provide green space, access to public transit, educational and recreational opportunities and creates a more inviting environment for residents, students, and visitors alike. With expanded green space that captures and treats urban runoff, the Paul Koretz Westwood Greenway reflects a commitment to building healthier, more livable neighborhoods while investing in the future of our city. The successful realization of the Paul Koretz Westwood Greenway Project was a collaborative effort, championed by Councilwoman Katy Yaroslavsky and led by LA Sanitation & Environment (LASAN) in partnership with the Bureau of Engineering City of Los Angeles (BOE) and the community. We look forward to seeing everyone enjoy the space! #MeasureW #PropO #watershedmoment @WatershedHealth @CD5LosAngeles @LACityDPW

🎄 #DYK that dry Christmas trees are fire hazards? Our friends at @LAFD suggest giving your tree a gallon of water a day to keep it fresh. But if it's getting crispy and losing needles, it's likely time to say goodbye. We offer free and easy ways to dispose of your tree. Follow the instructions in the video for free curbside collection or check our website for free drop-off locations around the City. 🔗 lacitysan.org/treerecycle Happy New Year from LASAN! Wishing you a safe and sustainable 2025!

It's another rainy day in LA, and our crews are still out working. If your bins haven't been collected, it's possible that it's due to the weather and unsafe roads. Our team will collect your bins Friday if they can't get to you today. Please remember that tomorrow's collection service is delayed by one day due to the New Year's holiday. Thursday collections will be on Friday and Friday collections will be on Saturday. If it's still raining, please close lids and place bins 6-12 inches from each other and the curb. In the meantime, please call us to report clogged catch basins or flooded streets. Our 24-hour Customer Care Center is available at 800-773-2489 to assist you.

@handelmanhere Sorry to hear of your frustration, Amy! Please DM your address, email, and phone. Our Customer Care Team will reach out to assist you.

@LACitySAN I’m still waiting for you to replace my bins. It’s been a month. You’re dysfunctional and unreliable and it’s horrible to suffer your service. Sincerely, an extremely dissatisfied “customer.” Quotes because you have a monopoly. #garbage #trash #CustomerService

Shout-out to our collections teams who worked so hard today in the storm, carefully navigating wet roads. If we didn’t get to you today due to weather and road conditions, don’t worry… we’ll be back Friday or as soon as the roads are safe again. Please remember that there will be no collection services tomorrow, 12/25, in observance of the Christmas holiday. If your scheduled collection service is Thursday, your bins will be collected Friday. If your scheduled service is Friday, we’ll collect your bins on Saturday. Our 24-hour Customer Care Center is available at 800-773-2489 if you have questions. Wishing you a happy, safe, and sustainable holiday season!

Whether it's a #PineappleExpress, an #AtmosphericRiver, or a day that ends in Y, our LSD crews are out cleaning up #illegaldumping across the City.  #PublicWorks #CivilService #ChristmasEve
