Single Stream Recycling is Here!

Collection Begins Monday, February 4th.

Single Stream Recycling  
Your City is pleased to offer curbside single stream recycling as part of its garbage collection services. The single stream recycling program allows city residents to recycle more products. Under the single stream recycling program, all recyclables, except for glass, can be recycled in ONE container. Using one collection container for all of your recyclable items increases the ease and convenience of recycling, which encourages more people to recycle and conserves more resources. Single stream makes recycling easier!

Beginning Monday, February 4th, ALL curbside recycling will be collected in automated recycling containers. The hand-sorted curbside recycling boxes will be phased out as part of the transition to single stream recycling. City residents should continue to use their hand-sorted curbside recycling boxes until the City begins collecting single stream recycling. For more information please call the City at 375-5004.  

Your single stream recycling will be collected on a different day than your garbage. Click here to view the Single Stream Recycling Collection Schedule and Map.
