Zero Waste Marin is the informal name for the Marin County Hazardous and Solid Waste Joint Powers Authority (JPA), which represents Marin’s 11 cities and towns and the unincorporated County of Marin on issues related to waste reduction and management. The JPA Board is comprised of city and town representatives from Belvedere, Corte Madera, Fairfax, Larkspur, Mill Valley, Novato, Ross, San Anselmo, San Rafael, Sausalito, Tiburon and the County of Marin.

Our mission is to protect natural resources by promoting source reduction of waste through reuse, repair, and more mindful purchasing. To make recycling and composting easy, we offer a variety of programs including: the Household Hazardous Waste Program, the Zero Waste Schools Program, and public outreach and education programs. These programs align with County-wide goals to act on climate change and promote healthy, safe, and sustainable communities.
