Recycling
Please follow these guidelines to ensure your proper trash and recycling collection:
- All trash must be contained in the 35-gallon cart issued by the city to be collected. Only city trash bags left outside the cart will be collected. Bag all trash to prevent litter.
- No construction materials from renovation projects will be collected.
- On windy days, trash and litter are sometimes blown away from your cart. If you see litter on your street, please collect and dispose of it properly.
- Please separate your recycle cart from your trash cart by 3 feet so it can be easily collected.
- Recyclable materials are collected every week on your regular collection day. Do not place recyclable materials in your trash bin. Do not place trash materials in your recycling cart.
- Trash and recycle carts must be placed at the edge of the roadway with wheels facing away from the street. Do not place your cart within 3 feet of any obstruction (trees, mailboxes, etc.)
