Wheeled Recycling Carts

The City is currently offering 64-gallon, wheeled recycling carts to schools, non-profits, and condos for long-term use for recycling collection programs. You would be responsible, however, for arranging pickup or transport of the recyclables to a Certified Redemption Center or recycling facility.

The wheeled cart’s dimensions are 42”H X 25”W X 30”D, with a weight of 35 lbs. empty.
The carts are decaled so you can collect aluminum, plastic, and glass containers in separate carts or commingle them in one cart.
The recycling carts must be kept secured. Damaged or stolen carts should be reported to the City’s Recycling Office at 768-3200.
You may request up to 30 wheeled, recycling carts for your ongoing fundraising program or up to 20 carts for a condo recycling program.
The carts can be picked up from the City facility during regular business hours -- call 768-3200 to arrange a time.
If you wish to return the carts to the City you will need to transport them to the nearest refuse collection yard.
Non-profit organizations and schools are responsible for coordinating the redemption of the deposit beverage containers collected and stored in the carts. Multi-family residential buildings are responsible for coordinating the pick-up and recycling of materials collected.
