What type of bags can I use for my recyclables?
Recyclable should be placed in clear or (transparent) blue bags. Grocery bags and department store bags are recyclable and go in your bluebag. These are not to be used for garbage or recyclables.
What do I do with Corrugated Cardboard Boxes?
Cardboard boxes should be broken down and placed in your bluebag. If they are to big for your bluebag, simply flatten, tie and bundle then place beside your bluebags for collection.
Why would my bluebag be rejected?
Possible reasons for rejection;
- Contains styrofoam, cloths or other unacceptable material
- Materials are wet or dirty
- Contains garbage or food waste
- Bag is not tied
What if I have a question about recycling?
