Our residential programs are contracted in two ways. Mostly, we contact with the city. However, in areas outside the city limits, we contract directly with the customer. Our schedules vary, and, depending on your contract, we pick-up materials from carts, bins, or blue bags. We consider ourselves an integral part of the team to conserve our natural resources and preserve our environment.

There is no need to presort recyclables. Do not place items in plastic bags unless it is shredded paper, which should only be placed in a CLEAR plastic bag. Please always close the cart lid.

Materials collected in a municipal recycling program include:
