Commercial Waste Zones - mattyschell/nyc-spatial-rolodex GitHub Wiki

Commercial Waste Zones do not currently exist but were approved into law by the New York City Council on October 30, 2019.

The Department of Sanitation has proposed a Commercial Waste Zone program that will divide the city into 20 zones, where each zone is comprised of one or more Community-Districts. Each zone will be serviced by up to three franchised commercial waste carters, also known as "private carters." Waste companies will apply to service a zone through competitive solicitation and will have to meet environmental, safety, and labor standards.

Commercial Waste Zones are different from Sanitation-Zones which have existed for many years.
