Keeping your cart free of contaminants is easy!

There are a few basics to always remember when you are putting items in your cart.

The following items DO NOT belong in your recycling cart:

  1. NO plastic grocery bags or plastic bags of any kind.
  2. NO food, food scraps, yard waste, or anything that can spoil or rot.
  3. NO clothing items or fabrics.
  4. NO wire, hoses, ropes, or hangers. Remember, these are tanglers and can shut down the sorting machinery!

To recycle electronics please go to MyDoRight.com for our Green Station locations and hours.

  1. Only empty plastic bottles and jugs (like laundry detergent, juice jugs, and water bottles).
