Preparation is easy:
- Recyclables should be clean, rinsed, dry and empty.
- Rinse containers with water and leave no food residue.
- Do not bag items ---except shredded paper (put it in a paper bag and roll down the top)
- Labels can stay on.
- Throw away plastic lids.

What to do on recycling day:
- Carts should be at the curb by 6 a.m. on your scheduled recycle day.
- Cart handles must face the house; the lid opening must face the street.
- Put the cart at the curbside on or within 3 feet of the traveled portion of the road.
- The cart should be at 3 feet away from basketball hoops, trees, mailboxes and other containers.
- Place the cart at least 5 feet from cars.
- Allow 18 feet of space above the cart so the robotic 'arm' on the collection truck has room to grasp the cart.
- Do not block mailboxes.
- Please remove the empty cart from the curb as soon as possible.
