Important Guidelines for Recycling
- No Bags, Please: Do not place your recycling in bags. Instead, keep items loose in your recycling cart. If you collect recyclables in plastic or paper bags at home, please empty the contents into the cart to assist with sorting. Loose paper bags are acceptable in the recycling cart, but plastic bags should be disposed of in the trash or taken to a designated plastic bag drop-off location.
- Rinse Before Recycling: Give your recyclables a quick rinse before placing them in the cart. They don’t need to be spotless, just free from major food residue.
- Keep Caps On: Make sure to keep the caps on plastic bottles and jugs.
- Maintain Original Shape: Ensure that cans, cartons, and bottles retain their original 3D shape.
- Flatten Boxes: Please flatten any cardboard boxes before recycling them.
By following these guidelines, you help improve the efficiency of the recycling process!
