Waterbury delivered 95-gallon recycling carts to 31,000 homes in 2017, and residents now recycle more than twice as much paper, cardboard, cans, and bottles as they did before. The carts are green with yellow lids, deliberately different from the blue trash carts. Waterbury's trash goes to a waste-to-energy plant in Bristol, so recycling cuts directly into what the city pays to have it burned.
They are green with yellow lids, a color combination chosen so residents and Public Works employees can tell them apart from the blue trash carts, and they hold 95 gallons, the same size as the trash carts. All registered households that receive Waterbury Public Works trash and recycling pick-up got one, including multi-family dwellings under 11 units where the city provides collection.
Paper including newspaper, magazines, and color and white paper; cardboard and paperboard such as cartons, cereal boxes, and pizza boxes that are empty, though minimal grease is fine; metal cans, trays, foil, and empty food-related spray cans; hard plastic jars, bottles and containers with no bags or foam; and glass bottles and jars, where metal lids are fine.
Plastic bags, Styrofoam cups, plates, block and packing peanuts, food, non-food spray cans such as paint or pesticide cans, china, porcelain and plate glass, electronics, clothing, shredded paper, and other trash.
No. Plastic bags become tangled in the sorting equipment at the recycling centers and can prevent the contents from being sorted properly. You may place papers in a paper shopping bag. Plastic bags themselves can be recycled in specially-marked bins at the entrances to Shop Rite, Stop & Shop, and Target.
Roll it to the curb each week on the same night you put out your trash cart, with the front of the cart aimed toward the street and the handles aimed away from the street. Keep recycling and trash carts at least 2 feet away from each other and from other objects so the collector can empty them without knocking either over.
