Recycling report showed that in July there were 26.36 tons of garbage and 3.06 tons of recyclables/paper. GFL has started using automatic trucks and so will no longer pick up the small bins of recyclables. You can use your old Waste Management cart or something similar to that or you can purchase a recycling cart from GFL for $65 at their facility. They have begun putting stickers in mailboxes that state their rules. 1. Trash and recycling must be out by 6:00 a.m. 2. Place container at the edge of the road, facing street.
