Recycle in Your Bin or Cart

NOTE: Some of these containers may come in very small sizes. Though these are still plastic "containers," they may be too small to be accurately captured and recycled through our current sorting process. It is best to place containers that are less than 2” in diameter and 2” tall in the trash.

This item follows the basic rule for plastic recycling in your bin or cart (it’s a container ≤ 5 gallons). Plastic containers must be empty at a minimum. If applicable, rinse whenever possible and fasten plastic tops back onto plastic containers.
