Recycle Right™
By recycling everyday items, tons of raw materials, time, energy, and money are saved. Follow these tips to Recycle Often. Recycle Right.
- Recycling must fit inside your yellow cart with the lid closed. It does not have to be bagged, but clear bags are preferred.
- No sorting is needed, but containers should be rinsed and free of food and liquid.
- Trash and recycling are collected once per week. Find your collection day by entering your address in the tool below or take a look at the collection schedule here.
