Knowing is Half the Battle!

In an effort to encourage proper recycling habits and to increase participation in the Atlanta Recycling program, Atlanta Recycling, in conjunction with its recycling service provider Dreamsan, Inc., has created several new forms of media to inform Atlanta citizens about how to recycling in Atlanta.

Recycling User Guides – The Atlanta Recycling User Guides are handy brochures that explain the Do’s and Don’ts of the recycling program.  User Guides can be obtained by calling the Atlanta Recycling Hotline at 404-792-1212.

Service Notices – Services Notices are informative reminders that may be left by your recycling collector if there are incorrect items are in your recycling bin.  Please read your notice should you receive one, because it will contain important information about your recycling service.

Atlanta Recycling Hotline – Atlanta Recycling has a Hotline that can be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days per week.  You can call the hotline with any questions or concerns about Atlanta Recycling.

E-mail – Residents with internet access can contact Atlanta Recycling via e-mail at Recycling@ci.atlanta.ga.us. 

By utilizing these publications and lines of communication, you can become fully knowledgeable of how to properly recycling in the City of Atlanta .


YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!

Recycling Is As Easy As 1, 2, 3!

First Decide on a storage area. The kitchen is an ideal place for a home recycling center. Put the bin a place where you'll remember to use it, such as under the sink or in a closet or pantry. These places can be easily outfitted as a storage place. A location about 3'x3', in the garage or near a back door, can also be used for storage.

Second Take every opportunity to fill your recycling bins with properly prepared recyclable materials.

Third Secure all items in your recycling bin.

RECYCLING COLLECTION TIMES AND INFORMATION

Curbside recycling services are provided to single family residences. Only approved recyclable materials inside a City of Atlanta recycling bin will be collected. Unapproved recyclable materials will be left in or on the recycling bin.
