StopWaste operates with a combined annual budget of approximately $38 million, funding programs administered by three governing bodies: the Alameda County Waste Management Authority (ACWMA), the Alameda County Source Reduction and Recycling Board (Recycling Board), and the Energy Council. Revenue derives primarily from per-ton disposal fees on waste landfilled in or originating from Alameda County, supplemented by federal and state grants for energy efficiency and waste prevention initiatives.
The agency maintains transparent financial practices with annual budgets approved by its boards and comprehensive financial reports available to the public.
