Recycling:

LOCAL LAW REQUIRES that Recyclables be placed out in your recycling bin or labeled container at curbside NO EARLIER than the night before the scheduled collection day or before 7:00 a.m. on the designated collection day. Place a weight on top of newspapers to prevent their blowing away. In case of rain, cover the newspapers. Rinse food and beverage containers thoroughly. Please refer to your Sanitation & Recycling Pickup Schedule (located above). The attached Recycling Guideline provides a detailed outline of which items are Recyclable as well as some additional pickups.

COMMINGLED - PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT ITEMS CODED 1 - 7 ARE RECYCLABLE.
