Solid Waste crews collect recycling for every residence in the Village each Tuesday and Thursday. splitting the days by recycling type:
On Tuesdays, glass and plastic (blue bin) is picked up for the entire Village, as well as bulk items from single-family homes.
On Thursdays, paper and cardboard (yellow bin) is picked up for the entire Village, as well as bulk items from multi-family homes.
When a holiday falls on a Thursday, residential bulk and recycling pick-up for that week will be done on the Tuesday before. Then, the regular collection schedule resumes again on Friday.
Place recycling bins where you put your garbage
Please DO NOT put your recycling bin out in the swale as in the past.
Place the bins next to your house wherever you place your garbage. This will help reduce the amount of debris that is blown from bins into the streets and swales on windy days.
Keep paper and cardboard protected from rain to reduce the weight until collected.
Co-Mingle plastic, glass and aluminum: Containers made of these materials should be rinsed out with lids and labels removed as well as possible.
Newspapers (bag or tie): A paper bag holds newspapers neatly and may be placed in one end or on top of the recycling bin.
