Recycling Collection Services

The average person generates 4.5 pounds of trash every day – about 1.5 tons of solid waste per year. Although the EPA estimates that 75 percent of solid waste is recyclable, only about 30 percent is actually recycled. Although recycling is the most common method of plastic waste pollution prevention, less than one percent of all plastics products are recycled in the U.S. Americans throw away 2,500,000 plastic beverage bottles every hour! This is why we include recycling in our basic services.

Help Us Make a Greener, Healthier Nebraska!

Recycling is the best way to avoid a long term impact on the environment and on our community due to your waste. Gretna Sanitation makes recycling easy. There's no sorting, just a recycling bin to fill with your recyclables and wheel out to the curb on your pickup day. We offer the option to swap your recycling and trash bin sizes so you can recycle even more!

Composting Services

Composting is the simplest way to reduce your family's impact on the environment. We realize not everyone has the time, money, or patience to do this at home, which is why we offer composting services to all our clients.
We Make Composting Easy

Gretna Sanitation has team up with Soil Dynamics, who has one of the best composting processes in the Midwest. This partnership not only allows us to properly dispose of yard waste immediately, but allows us to provide one of the most important services in waste disposal. Composting removes organic materials from land fills that create methane gas. Because methane is so much more damaging than CO2, it is important to remove as much organic material from landfills as possible.Today, Gretna Sanitation is accepting all yard waste items. As a rule, if you can grow it in your yard you can throw it in the compost bin.Need another reason to start composting your yard waste? Use your yard waste container as a trash container between the months of December and March with no extra charge.
