Private Carting Awardees by Zone

Only NYC-authorized carters are permitted to collect commercial waste.

There are two types of authorizations:

• Zone-authorized (all 20 zones): Each zone will have up to 3 carters per zone, authorized for both curbside and dumpsters/compactors (10CY+)
• Citywide-authorized: 5 carters are authorized to collect commercial waste in all 20 zones, only from dumpsters/compactors (10CY+)

All Collection Services

You will need to choose from a list of carters authorized to service your zone. You will select carters based on the material being collected (garbage, recycling, organics) and type of collection service (curbside or containerized)

Dumpsters and Compactors

If your waste is collected in a dumpster or compactor, you can additionally choose one of the citywide carters that service waste containers holding 10 cubic yards or more.
