New Haven One Cart Recycling

 

SINGLE STREAM RECYCLING FOR NEW HAVEN RESIDENTS

With single-stream recycling, you no longer have to sort your recyclables into two separate bins. New, convenient, green-top Earth First carts can handle all of your recyclables – including plastics #1 through #7.

HERE IS HOW YOU CAN PARTICIPATE 

  • Call Earth First at 436-8700 and they will deliver to your home one green-top container for recyclables
  • All recyclables are to be placed in this one container (no sorting is required)
  • Plastics #1 through #7 are accepted (look on the bottom of containers for numbers enclosed in recycling arrows)
  • Collection is every other week 
  • Place your recycling cart near your trash cart leaving a 3-foot space between the two
