Curbside recycling in Columbus is voluntary. Curbside recycling will be as simple as trash collection. Residents are simply asked to place accepted recyclable materials in a provided FREE 96-gallon recycling toter and all other non-recyclable garbage in their existing trash toter. The recycling toters will be the same as trash toters except they will have green lids instead of the usual black. Then residents are only required to place their FREE 96-gallon recycling toter at the curb once every two weeks for collection.
