Recycling pickup provides the benefits of recycling without the hassle of dropping it off.

Diverting your waste from the landfill doesn’t have to be difficult. Many recycling pickup companies offer single stream recycling, where you don’t even have to sort your materials – it’s as simple as that, and great for a busy lifestyle.

Benefits

Passive

Once you’ve signed up for recycling pickup, you really don’t have to give it a second thought – just collect your materials and bring them to the curb.

Simple

Signing up for recycling pickup can be as simple as calling your garbage company or landlord.

Buildable

Signing up for recycling pickup also allows you to further divert your waste with the Hefty ReNew program.

More information

Pickup for renters

Some landlords – particularly ones that pay for garbage pickup – aren’t too keen on adding a recycling pickup service. Star City Recycling, a local recycling company, only focuses on recycling; their service can be added independently of garbage services for those in rental houses.

Signing up for service

Recycling glass

Because it is so breakable and dangerous, many recycling pickup companies don’t accept glass – however, don’t let that stop you! Visit the recycling drop-off page on SustainLNK to learn where and how to drop off your glass recycling.
