Special Tips

  • Keep paper and food containers separated. Cardboard boxes, flattened, not larger than 3' square, tied (please use cotton twine) into a separate bundle. Do not use cardboard boxes, paper or plastic bags as containers for other recyclables. Empty and rinse food containers. DO not recycle containers for motor oil, auto anti-freeze etc.
  • Save space! Flatten larger items.
