Recycling Collection
Collection requirements– Recycling is collected every two weeks. Place your blue bins at the curb no earlier than 7 p.m. the evening before and no later than 7 a.m. the morning of your collection.
Blue curbside carts have 2 compartments. Residents are asked to properly sort their recyclable materials – paper/fibers on one side, plastics and containers on the other.
