Q: My multi-family complex doesn’t have separate trash and recycle bins. All trash is disposed of in a single bin. How can I recycle my household waste?
A: Good news! All multi-family household waste collected in bins is sorted and processed at a MRF (Material Recycling Facility) to recover the maximum amount of recyclable material. Please help at home by separating your trash and recyclable waste into separate trash bags. Source separating at home helps tremendously with the recovery of recyclable items at the MRF.
