| Be sure to only recycle items from the Do's list. Contamination may cause the entire truck load of recyclables to be rejected at the recycling facility. Please rinse food waste from containers before recycling, but please consider the environment; we do not want to waste one precious resource (water) to save another. If non-accepted or non-recyclable items are found in the blue cart, you may find a a yellow "Oops!" tag attached to the cart, notifying the customer of contamination and a reminder of the Do's and Don'ts of recycling. |
