Sarasota County runs single-stream, cart-based automated recycling for residents in unincorporated Sarasota, with one county-provided cart per residence paid for through the annual non-ad valorem assessment on the property tax bill. Because a robotic arm empties the cart, anything set beside it is simply not collected. Household chemicals go to one of three county facilities, free with proof of residency.
Aluminum and steel cans, food and beverage cartons, glass bottles and jars, mixed paper, paper board, cardboard, newspapers and magazines, and plastic bottles. Lightly rinse items and replace lids before putting them in the cart. Containers or packaging with food residue belong in the garbage instead.
