Recycling Options in Castle Rock

Oct 03, 2008

I realized that although many of us may know ?“why?” we should all do our part in ensuring a healthy future for our children (and our planet), but what we may not know is: What, When, Where and How! So here it is:

*What can be recycled?
Plastics with the recycle sign on it, (numbered from 1 to 7). Also, Glass, paper, news paper, card board, magazines, phone books, junk mail, and aluminum cans. (Check with your trash co. for details).
*When does the recyclable trash get picked up?
This varies depending on your trash company. I found they usually pick it up bi-weekly. If you drop off your recyclable trash it can be done anytime! There are many free drop-off locations in our neighborhood. (See the list below). Check out their specific recycling guidelines before you begin.
*Where can I bring my recycle trash? Again this answer varies depending on where you live, and what is most convenient for you. I have provided a list of some of the places, and companies you may choose from to meet your recycling needs.
*How do I recycle? Most places do not require your recyclable trash to be separated. Just rinse out recyclable trash, when applicable, and keep it in a can or bag in your kitchen until your disposal date. Most trash companies will pick it up from your curb every other week for about $3.85 a month! Or you can drive it over to one of the many local drop off locations listed below for free.
