Residential
Recycling Service
Recyclables collected will alternate each week
between the BLUE lidded bin (paper)
and the YELLOW lidded bin (containers).
Collection
takes place on the same day as your garbage removal, and Council
has developed a Calendar
to show Recycling Bin Collection Weeks. For
units, bins are serviced once a week.
Please DO NOT place plastic bags in the recycling bins as this makes
the materials unusable.
Please
see below for a list of all materials that can be recycled.
In
the YELLOW BIN 
Remove lids and rinse all containers before placing in the bin.
