Simi Valley residents may dispose of residential rubbish for free from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sun., May 15 at the Simi Valley Landfill and Recycling Center, 2801 Madera Road, Simi Valley. Appliances, clean concrete and asphalt, and clean wood and greenwaste will also be accepted for recycling.

Residents are requested to separate recyclable materials from rubbish so it can be recycled and not landfilled. The California Highway Patrol requires all loads to be covered to prevent spillage. Proof of local residency, such as a driver’s license with a Simi Valley address, will be required. This event is for residents and nonprofit organizations only. Residents must unload their own vehicles.

No commercial waste, hazardous waste, liquids, tires, televisions, computer monitors or fluorescent light tubes will be accepted.

To avoid paying commercial dump fees and to expedite the process, residents bringing their waste in a commercial vehicle should call the center prior to the event.
