Why Should I Use The RecyclePlus Service?

- RecyclePlus is a convenient service that allows you to declutter your home, and feel good about doing your part to help the environment.

- We believe in helping our community reduce, reuse and recycle in all the ways we can. All items RecyclePlus collects are items that are prohibited in the blue recycle cart. Collecting these items separately allows us the opportunity to get them recycled instead of landfilling them.

- You can trust that we research the best ways to make sure all items are donated locally and are recycled in a responsible way.
