Curbside Recycling Collection
Recycling is collected every other week on the same day your garbage is collected. To see a collection calendar or to determine which week your recycling can is collected, please click here. Recycling is $3.00/month and is not an optional service. We also have community drop sites for items such as extra recyclables and green waste. Please click here for community recycle dropsite locations.
DO's and DON'Ts of Curbside Recycling
