Put this item in your recycling (blue) cart or a transparent clear or blue-tinted plastic bag.

• Use or consume the item’s contents. Make sure the item is clean and empty before placing it in your recycling.
• Remove any wrap, absorbent pads, or seals. Put these in the garbage.
• Don’t put recyclables in tied plastic grocery bags.

• The lid on your recycling cart must be closed for collection. A closed lid also helps prevent litter.

• The Region collects unlimited amounts of recycling waste from the curb.
