LAS CRUCES - Las Cruces is growing, and with that growth comes a need for utility services at homes and businesses including natural gas, water, wastewater and solid waste disposal. Las Cruces Utilities aims to meet that need and is undertaking an examination of its solid waste routes to balance the daily waste pickup across the city.
LCU anticipates the solid waste customer base will potentially increase by 25 percent over the next five years. This information is based on the current permits and plan reviews for master-planned subdivisions and the number of residential lots expected.
