We know recycling guidelines can be confusing! The Recycle Coach app will help -- download it now for information and alerts!

Here are some tips to help you get started being the best recycler you can be:

• Reuse, or even refuse, items whenever possible!
• Recyclables should be empty, but they don't have to be washed.  
• Do not use plastic bags - leave recyclables loose in your bin or cart.
• Keep lids attached to containers.
• Flatten boxes to save space in your bin or cart or drop-off location dumpsters.
• NO Styrofoam in curbside or drop-off locations. Foam Fabricators accepts non-food contaminated Styrofoam for recycling. MUST be clean; free of tape, stickers, or labels; may NOT have been used for food.
• NO plastic grocery bags. Plastic grocery bags can be recycled at participating stores.
