- Styrofoam recycling – If you can flake it, we can take it! Styrofoam packaging found in furniture boxes, TV boxes, and single-use coolers, also known as Expanded Polystyrene, is now accepted at the Recycling Center.
- Glass is now accepted at the Recycling Center.
- And we’ve consolidated the paper, plastics, glass, and aluminum products – so you don’t have to separate them! That’s right, we’ve simplified recycling!
The Recycling Center is the City’s drop-off location for many recyclables, including several that cannot be recycled curbside. The center also hosts Household Hazardous Waste Collection events.
