HOLIDAY COLLECTION SCHEDULE: Regular trash collection is delayed one day due to the
observance of certain holidays. This allows the workers who serve you all year at the hauling
companies, landfills and recycling facilities to enjoy these holidays with their families and loved ones.
Your cooperation and understanding are appreciated. The following holidays will result in a one-day
delay in solid waste collection if they are on your regular collection day, or earlier in the same work
week (Monday - Friday) as your regular collection day:
Paper: almost all clean dry paper can be recycled. Including cardboard, magazines and newspapers, shiny
paper ads, catalogs, telephone books, and junk mail. Do not recycle wet or greasy or dirty paper such as
food wrappers or tissues.
Plastic: Any plastic product with a number “1” (PETE), or “2” (HDPE). These numbers
include beverage containers, water & milk jugs, detergent and shampoo
bottles.
Other Plastics are not recyclable at this time . The list on non-recyclable plastics
includes “3” (V), “4” (LDPE), “5” (PP), “6” (PS), and “7” (OTHER). Specific non-
recyclable products are plastic bags; yogurt and cottage cheese containers, plastic utensils; fast-food soft
drink lids, meat trays and food covers, drinking straws, film plastic wraps, and Styrofoam.
Metal goods like table ware, window frames, paper clips and nails, and non-ferrous metals are not
recyclable.
Glass: bottles and jars, all colors. No light bulbs, drinking glasses, or ceramics. Rinse jars lightly to remove
food and other residues from bottles. Avoid breakage!
GREEN CART: YARD TRIMMINGS RECYCLING: Recycle yard trimmings such as grass
clippings, leaves, plant material, horse manure, brush, tree limbs, and small pieces of unpainted or
unstained wood. Yard trimmings should be placed in your own specially marked trash bin with the
yellow yard trimmings label facing the street. Call your hauler if you need extra labels to mark your bin
as a yard trimmings container. The cost of this service is included in the regular trash disposal bill. As
an alternative, try “grasscycling.” For tips on how to grasscycle, check out the California Integrated
Waste Management Boards’ website at http://www.ciwmb.ca.gov/Organics/GrassCycling/
