Gwinnett's Solid Waste Services Changes Will Not Effect Suwanee

In 2009, Gwinnett County will begin its district-based contract system for sanitation services managed and operated through the office of Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful on behalf of the county.  For now, these changes will not effect the residents within the City of Suwanee.  Suwanee residents will continue to select their own sanitation services providers, while city officials observe the new Gwinnett county solid waste management system and continue to evaluate a variety of possible options for future services.

The City of Suwanee shares many of the same goals as Gwinnett county in upgrading the solid waste management systems within our community.  These goals include expanding recycling opportunities, saving energy, improving collection efficiencies, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, environmental enhancements and improving resident quality of life.  As city officials analyze Suwanee’s needs in 2009, opportunites will be provided for citizen input and feedback throughout the process.
