We aim to provide quality recycling collection every other week. Here are a few tips to help us in our services.
Acceptable recycle bins
We will provide a toter for use while subscribing to our service.
Bi-Weekly Pickup rate:
- 96-gallon toter: $15.30 per month.
Having issues with your toter? Does it need to be repaired or replaced? Submit a request for a repair here.
Our recycling bins are durable, corrosion-resistant, water-tight, and come with a close-fitting cover and convenient handle. All material must fit inside the bin with the lid secured to prevent litter. Overflowing bins and boxes set on the ground will not be collected.
Please have your bins curbside before 6am
Our drivers have a rhythm to their duties. They strive to collect everything from everybody in a fast, efficient, and elegant method.
To help us achieve this aim, your bins must be ready for pickup by 6am on your collection day. Place them at the curb and allow 3 feet from cars, trees, mailboxes, fences, and other bins.
Please have all items in your bin
All items must fit inside your bin to get picked up. We don’t pick up items that are left out or placed next to your recycle bins.
You can sign up for an additional bin if one is necessary.
