Drop off windows for cardboard, plastics, paper, and aluminum cans are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Learn more about accepted recyclable items and hours of operation.

Trash, debris and bulky items piled next to the alley dumpsters is illegal and prevents the Solid Waste trucks from being able to pick up the containers when service resumes.
