Recycling - 96 gal. Blue Cart

WHY should I recycle?

When does Recycling Collection Take Place?

Residential recycling collection occurs on the same day as your trash collection day.

All cardboard must be flattened and loaded into a cart or bin.

Large volumes of cardboard (new move-ins) are urged to call the office for a special pickup at NO additional charge.

Mixed glass, aluminum and plastic containers can be mixed into one container. (Currently, a 17 gallon blue bin is provided for mix recyclables. In March 2005, a 96 gallon cart will be provided for the mixture of all recyclables.)
