Curbside Recycling
Curbside recycling now serves half of the U.S. population, providing the most convenient means for households to recycle a variety of materials.
While all curbside programs differ, the most commonly included materials are The Big Five: aluminum, glass, paper, plastic and steel.
If curbside recycling isn’t available in your area, consider starting your own recycling program.
