Rules for recycling:
- All receptacles containing recycling should be placed between the curb and sidewalk the night before pickup.
- Please make sure to not include contamination in your recycling!
- If any materials were left by the recycling truck, it very well may be because you did not follow a rule of accepted recycling (ex: did not break down large cardboard boxes).
- The older, blue 20 Gallon recycling buckets are gradually being phased out. They are being replaced with two 65-gallon wheeled totes; one is to be used for paper/cardboard, the other is for plastic/aluminum. According to Somerset County, this process will take 2 to 3 years to complete.
