Be recycle ready

• Place your recycling bins at the curb by 7 a.m. on your regular collection day.

• Sort your recyclables before placing them in your blue boxes.
• Flatten and break down cardboard boxes to save space on recycling.
• Blue boxes cannot weigh more than 20 kilograms (44 pounds).
• All recyclables must be loose inside the blue box. Recyclables in plastic bags will not be collected.
• Empty and rinse all containers before putting them in the blue box.
• On windy days, put your recycling out for collection in the morning instead of the night before.
• Don’t overfill your blue boxes. Keep material below the rim.
• Bundle cardboard separately. These bundles can act as a “lid” for your blue box.
• In the winter, place blue boxes on cleared parts of your driveway. Do not put them on top of snowbanks or icy patches.
• There is no limit to the number of blue boxes you can set out for collection.
