Volunteer Opportunities

Are you looking for an opportunity to get involved in your community in a way that really makes a difference?

Well, join the Solid Waste Authority's Volunteer Program.

Since 1994 hundreds of Palm Beach County residents have given their time to help the Solid Waste Authority educate the public about the benefits of waste prevention and recycling.  Every year the SWA recognizes its volunteers at a Volunteer Recognition Luncheon.  Check out the Volunteer of the Year award winners for 2009 and 2010.

Why We Need You

The Solid Waste Authority could not run all of the community projects and events we do without the assistance of volunteers.  Volunteers are vital to the SWA's mission of educating the public.  We need individuals and groups to help out with sponsored projects, community events, and administrative support.  We make every effort to match each volunteer's experience and interests to our needs.

Our Mission

Through the efforts made by the SWA and our volunteers we will promote the 3R's: Reducing, Reusing, and Recycling with the goal of reducing the nearly 2.0 million tons of solid waste generated each year in Palm Beach County.  Together we will communicate the benefits the SWA offers the community through our environmentally sound and innovative integrated solid waste management system, extraordinary customer service, and award winning recycling and educational programs.
