 Recycling Services

Where to find a Recycling Service Provider

1) Add recycling to your current waste-hauler contract - It can sometimes be as simple as adding recycling service to the existing contract.

2) Find a different private recycler – Shop around for a recycling service provider other than your waste hauler that fits your needs. This includes dedicated ‘for profit’ recyclers who collect only recyclables (not waste) and non-profit recyclers, or – if you do not have enough material for regular pickups - you can take materials yourself to a City Yard by calling first.
