PLEASE NOTE the new changes!!
As of October 1, 2005, you can recycle more items. For residents with an active Dallas Water Utilities account, you can prepare recyclable materials as follows: In a brown paper bag you can include: newpapers and inserts (clean, dry & non-yellowed); magazines, junk mail, home/office paper; flattened chipboard (dry food boxes, cereal boxes). **PLEASE do not set out on rainy days.** Paper items can also be placed inside blue or clear plastic bags.
In a clear or blue translucent bag, you may include: glass containers (all colors), unbroken and rinsed; plastic bottles/containers - codes #1 through #5 and #7, rinsed without caps; aluminum cans; steel/tin food cans, rinsed (you may flatten to save space); and aerosol cans that are empty (no paint/hazardous waste cans). There are also glass and aluminum Igloo Recycling Drop-off sites at Tietze Park and Greenland Hills United Methodist Church (Penrose & Delmar).
