New Recycling Program Starts!

Recycling just got easier.  You have received a new 48-gallon blue recycling cart with wheels and a lid.  It will replace the two bins (blue and yellow) you were using.  Your new single stream cart can be used for all your recyclables.  Just place them into the big blue cart and roll it to the curb for collection.

It is not necessary to sort the containers, but please rinse them. Lids can be left on containers.

• Aluminum/steel cans
• Glass bottles and jars
• #1 thru #7, no #6 plastics such as:
• Milk jugs
• Soda bottles
• Shampoo bottles
• Personal hygiene containers
• Condiment bottles
• Newspapers
• Magazines
• Junk mail
• Office paper
• Other paper fiber-based material should be clean and dry with no plastic bags or strings

The city will no longer be picking up recyclables in the two bins.

All recyclable items can also be dropped off at the self-service Recycling Drop-off Center located in the rear parking lot of 975 Pennsylvania.

Below are two documents from www.ucitymo.org to clarify the recycling program:
