Program Rules and Requirements

  1. Prep your recyclables

    Items must be:

    • Larger than the size of your fist.
    • Rinsed, empty, and/or dry as appropriate.
    • Only refer to the accepted items listed and do not use the plastic resin number as a guide for recycling. Not all items marketed as recyclable are accepted locally.

     

  2. Take your recyclables to the cart

    • All items must be free and loose (not bagged). Bagged material will not be recycled. 
    • Do not jam in boxes as they can get stuck and prevent the proper collection of materials.
    • Ensure your cart lid is down to prevent items from getting wet.
  3. Set your cart out for service

    • Unlike garbage, your recycling cart can wait to be full before being placed at the curb for collection service. 
    • Place the cart at the curb with a 3-foot clearance on all sides the night before your designated pickup day, or before 6 a.m. on your pickup day. 
    • Cart must be removed from the curb by end of the service day.
