It's easy to recycle with Curb It! Recycle and Roll – simply toss the accepted recycling materials into your recycling cart and roll it to the curb on your collection day. Curb It! is an automated collection program and there are a few simple cart placement guidelines to follow in order to guarantee a safe and timely pick up.
There is a sticker on the top of each Curb It! Recycle and Roll cart that lets you know when your recycling will be collected. You can also print a copy of the Curb It! Residential Recycling Guide which includes the collection calendar as well as a list of helpful tips, accepted recyclables, and important contact information.
Curb It! recyclables are picked up by our contracted hauler, Waste Management and delivered to Greenstar where the recyclables are sorted so they can be sold for reuse. MidAmerica
Recycling is in the process of building a material recovery facility that will use mechanical processes, technology and people to sort recyclables collected by the Curb It! program. Until that facility is completed, MidAmerica Recycling is using manpower to sort recyclables so they can
be sold for reuse.
Acceptable Items:
Due to the way some plastic items are made, not all plastics are compatible with each other, even if they share the same resin code. Therefore, we can only recycle certain plastic items.
