Recycling

To be on the pick-up list, residents will need a blue recycling bin (two are provided by the city and may be picked up at City Hall) and you must inform City Hall of the address for pickup. No glass is allowed. Please rinse out bottles and cans well before placing out for recycling. Recycling is every 2nd and 4th Friday of each month.
