Instructions
Step One:
Upon arrival our employees will assist in finding a parking location. Recyclable materials must be sorted before being accepted. Certain requirements are required; such as glass, where it is sorted by glass color of clear, green, or brown. Plastics are also required to be sorted by each labeled type (PET#1, HDPE#2, or #6). Please use the smaller bins for glass. Plastic can be placed in any bin, regardless of size as long as the bin has a number. Metal baskets are reserved for plastic, yellow plastic carts are for glass.
Step Two:
When you are ready, please bring your bins to our cashier area and an employee will weigh them for you. If you want to have your bottles and cans done by count, YOU MUST LET THE EMPLOYEE KNOW BEFORE PROCEEDING. We only count up to 50 per material per day regardless of size. Please print your name and sign the receipt handed to you by the cashier. You will receive your own copy.
