Recycling At Home
Recycling is available to all Palm Beach County residents.  With your help we have made Palm Beach County's recycling program one of the best in the country.  If you currently recycle, we thank you.  If you don't, we urge you to start.

Recycling preserves our natural resources and increases the life of our landfill.  The Solid Waste Authority has adopted a 50% waste reduction goal and if we are going to continue to achieve this goal we need everyone to do their part.

Recycling is easy in Palm Beach County.

Here's how.

 

 

Paper products go in your yellow bin.  Palm Beach County recycles:

  • Newspaper
  • Magazines
  • Catalogs
  • Telephone Books
  • Corrugated Cardboard
  • Kraft Bags (Paper Grocery Bags)

 

Recyclable containers go in your blue bin.  These include:

  • Plastic containers #1-7

  • Glass Bottles and Jars

  • Aluminum Cans, Foil, and Pie Plates

  • Drink Boxes

  • Milk and Juice Cartons

 
Because contamination affects the marketability of the materials we collect, please be careful not to place the following in your bin:

Junk Mail, Cereal Boxes, Plastic Grocery Bags, Tin Cans, Styrofoam and Food Waste
