Mid Michigan Waste Authority was formed in 1991 and began offering residential waste services in 1995. Since formed, 35 municipalities in the greater Saginaw area have joined to participate in creating and maintaining the regional solid waste management system. MMWA staff provides member communities with residential curbside services oversight, contract and services billing management, technical assistance and advice on solid waste management issues.
MMWA also offers programming to provide residents with effective methods of disposing of problem wastes such as household chemicals, electronic equipment and paint. Our public information and education endeavors include community wide events, in-school solid waste education presentations, and an extensive variety of resources for the general public and educational institutions.
