    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

    What problem are we solving?

    Curbside recycling programs often do not recycle the waste streams collected by the Community Recycling Unit. This results in waste being dumped in landfills, incinerated, or polluting the natural environment. We aspire to fix that problem by diverting what we can for recycling or reuse.

    What brand of items are accepted at the Community Recycling Unit?

    We accept all brands of packaging at the Community Recycling Unit, regardless of where they were purchased.

    Are there any costs associated with recycling at the Community Recycling Unit?

    It is free to use the Community Recycling Unit. Operational costs are offset by the generous donation of our sponsors.

    Do I need to clean the items before I recycle them?

    Please remove all liquid and food from waste materials prior to dropping it off at the Community Recycling Unit. Failure to comply may contaminate the waste stream and prevent us from being able to recycle or reuse the waste.

    Are the Units at Walmart and Sam's Club the same?

    Yes, the units are the same (take back the same waste streams, recycling is the same), the only difference is the colors/logos.

    *DISCLAIMER: Recycling and reuse of materials is not guaranteed. Eligible materials are recycled to the maximum extent practicable. Hazardous waste and contaminated materials will not be recycled or reused.
