Tulare’s Adopted 2026–27 Residential Garbage and Street-Sweeping Rate Totals $33.63

TULARE — November 2, 2026. Tulare’s adopted solid-waste rate schedule lists $28.63 for standard three-container residential service plus $5 for street sweeping in fiscal 2026–27.

How the published rate is calculated

Together, the two components total $33.63 for the regular standard residential rate. The adopted schedule also contains fees for extra cans, excess service, contamination and replacement containers.

Later years have separate scheduled figures

The rate document shows additional amounts for fiscal years 2027–28 through 2029–30. Residents should not apply a later year’s rate to a 2026 bill, and business or multi-unit service uses different pricing.
