Non-recyclables contaminate recycling loads, and need to be removed during the sorting process. Some items may also contaminate clean recyclable items (ex. pasta sauce jar with sauce still in it, can soak into clean office paper which is then no longer recyclable either).
If our drivers notice a lot of contamination in your recycle cart or bin, we may not be able to service it as recycling and may tag it to have it serviced as trash (in which case you may be charged).
Residents in single-family homes have bulk trash picked up on the first day of their weekly garbage collection.
Multi-family communities with designated bulk trash areas may have a different schedule. Under this plan, items are removed the same day they are scheduled to be placed outside for collection. To determine your neighborhood's schedule, please click on the link below.
