Garbage & Recycling

About the Service Provider

Atlantic Waste would like to thank you and your representatives for the opportunity to provide you with the highest quality waste and recycling service possible. We feel that we will be a significant upgrade from your former waste service provider. To give you some background Atlantic Waste was started in Savannah, in 1998, by Ben & Burke Wall. We have grown to be the largest local owned waste hauling and collection company in the Coastal Empire through providing superior service and we plan on providing Richmond Hill the same excellent service.

Garbage Collection

Garbage collection of “landfill only waste” will be picked once per week in the green lid cart. Please note that hazardous waste materials (radioactive waste, extreme acidic or basic chemicals, large liquids waste of 5 gallons more), wet paint, tires, and medical waste greater than 2 pounds per week will not be accepted.

Recycling Collection

Recyclables will be picked up once every other week in the yellow lid cart. Residents can recycle paper, plastic, aluminum, and small pieces of cardboard. Please view the recyclable items tab here for more information about what may be recycled. Please note that all containers, bottles, cans, etc. should be clean before being placed in the recycling cart.
