What Goes Into Your Blue Bin

Blue Bin containers are picked up curbside every other week the same day as trash pick up. The following items will be picked up in your blue bin.

  • Glass - clear, green and brown glass bottles and jars.
  • Plastic - only containers with #1 or #2 in the triangle on the bottom.
  • Metal - aluminum and tin cans.
  • Newspaper - must be flat, clean and tied with string or in a brown paper bag and placed on top of the blue bin.
  • Junk Mail and Magazines - are now acceptable mixed in with your newspaper in your blue bin.

-Note-

All items must be rinsed and clean, discard all caps in regular trash. Discard broken glass to avoid injury to handlers. Plastics bags are not blue bin recyclable. They jam the equipment at the recycling plant.

If your Blue Bin is lost or Damaged, replacement bins can be obtained at The Highways and Bridges Department. There is a fee of $6.00 for additional or replacement Blue Bins.
