Boxes that aren’t flattened take up too much room! If you break down your boxes, it helps you and it helps our crews. You’ll have more room in your cart and our truck won’t fill up as quickly, which means fewer trips back and forth to the recycling facility.

· Glitter or waxy wrapping materials

These are not recyclable and should go in your green garbage cart. We appreciate your help in properly disposing of all the extra packaging that comes with the holiday season. For more information on what you can recycle, visit raleighnc.gov and search for “recycling.”

Find your pickup schedule as well.
