Austin has a goal of reaching zero waste by 2040. This means reducing the amount of trash sent to landfills by 90%. Residents of multifamily properties (apartments, dorms, condos, assisted living facilities and nursing homes) can help by reducing the trash you create, recycling, composting, and reusing or donating items.
Multifamily properties are required to provide their residents with convenient access to composting collection, starting Oct. 1, 2024. Learn more about apartment and condominium composting.
