Los Angeles trash collection fees will be doubled for most households

Residents in Los Angeles will soon see much higher trash collection bills, after the Los Angeles City Council on Friday, April 11, approved a major fee increase – in most cases more than doubling what people currently pay.

Monthly rates for single-family homes are set to jump 54%, from $36.32 to $55.95 next year. Apartment buildings and other multi-family homes will see a steeper increase of 130%, from $24.33 to $55.95. By 2029, the monthly bill for all customers is expected to reach $65.93.
