Other notes
- Ordinary accepted streams include rinsed aluminum/steel cans, glass food/beverage bottles, clean #1-#7 plastic containers, flattened cardboard/boxboard, newspaper, magazines, junk mail and office paper. No foam, plastic bags/wrap, plastic furniture, drinking/window glass or garbage.
- The long official A-Z guide contains internal conflicts about alkaline batteries, pizza boxes, carton acceptance and some caps. Do not use that page as permission to leave batteries or ambiguous paper packaging in recycling bins; call the district for current site-specific instructions.
- HHW, appliances, electronics and tires are directed to special collection events or other outlets, not ordinary site bins. The recurring first-Saturday-after-Labor-Day Tox-Away reference is not a future November 2026 collection date.
- The current permanent-locations page lists only these three centers. A separate older 2025 postcard also lists a Greensburg landfill-area center; that older listing is not repeated as verified current intake here. The district office at 315 S. Ireland Street Suite D is an administrative address, not one of the three listed drop-offs.
