Take the Authority Pledge
As a resident or business owner in Broward County, I pledge to:
- Create less waste in my daily life
- Recycle correctly
- Reuse and repurpose as many items as possible
- Support the work the Authority is doing to decrease our dependency on the landfill and waste-to-energy facility
Our Goals
In addition to developing a Solid Waste Management and Recycling Master Plan for Broward County, our top priorities are: public outreach, research and development, recycling, and supporting regional solutions.
Recycle Right
The state has set a 75% recycling goal for all counties in Florida. Currently, Broward County is recycling approximately 32% of its waste, down from an estimated 39% in 2023. Every cardboard box and aluminum can you recycle decreases the amount of waste that reaches the landfill and waste-to-energy facility.
