Recycling - A Shared Responsibility
Waste Management and You

Recycling using the new 96-gallon rollout carts began the week of July 9, 2012.  Collection is on the same day
as your trash collection, but is collected every other week.

Just a note regarding your 18-gallon bin...
Since you can no longer use your 18-gallon bin, you may either keep your bin and put it to some other use or
you may recycle it in your new 96-gallon rollout.

Guidelines were delivered with your rollout.  If you happened to misplace them, you can reprint them here.
