It's a problem that's growing at an alarming rate, and it will not go away. Much of the trash being dumped at the landfill can be recycled. Your neighborhood has been chosen to participate in this curbside recycling program. You can make a difference. By recycling some of your garbage every week, you will play an important role in reducing this growing problem.
Curbside recycling is as easy as putting out the garbage.
The District is providing your household with a blue recycling bin. On garbage day just place your blue recycling bin next to your regular garbage. The recyclables will be picked up on the same day as your regular garbage by a special recycling truck. The materials will be delivered to a recycling vendor for marketing. This special curbside program started Monday, November 13, 1995.
