Residential single stream recycling

We continuously talk about leaving this world better than we found it, caring about and encouraging a cleaner environment and as such, we are increasing our efforts to expand our residential recycling capabilities across the country. We work directly with municipalities to develop and implement a service contract that is mutually beneficial for both parties. We can provide pick up of 96 gallon totes, or work directly with the municipality providing a facility to deliver their resident’s recyclables. Our facilities are tooled to accept material in single stream form, meaning all commingled in one tote.

Follow these simple guidelines to recycle responsibly:

First and foremost, do not bag your recyclables. The items should be loose in your cart. Make sure you know what items can be recycled and what items belong in the trash. Knowing these guidelines and implementing them every day will help us recycle more efficiently. We accept cardboard, paper, metals, tin, aluminum cans, and plastics 1-7.

Accepted Items:

Plastic 1 : PET or PETE (polyethylene terephthalate)

Examples – Mouthwash, water, peanut butter containers, salad and vegetable oil containers, and food jars.

Plastic 2 : HDPE (high density polyethylene)

Examples – Milk jugs, juice bottles, bleach, detergent, household cleaner bottles, oil bottles, shampoo bottles, butter and yogurt tubs.

Tin, steel, and bi-metal used food cans (emptied of food residue and rinsed).

Aluminum beverage cans

Paper items such as newspapers and inserts, junk mail, magazines, catalogs, phone books, paperback books, office paper, white and colored paper

We DO NOT accept the following items:

  • Styrofoam containers or packaging

Make sure that all items in your recycling are empty, clean, and dry. Keep all recyclables free of food and liquid. One contaminated item has the ability to compromise an entire truck load of recyclable materials!!
