Recyclables (Blue cart)
Effective December 1 2020, all waste (including recyclables) collected at the curb is now transported to a Waste-to-Energy (WTE) facility, which safely incinerates waste to generate electricity. Residents no longer are required to wash and separate reycling products from garbage. Blue recyclables container may now be used as an additional solid waste container. Due to this change, recyclables carts are no longer issued.
