West Palm Beach recycles on the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County's dual-stream system, which means two bins rather than one: yellow for paper and blue for containers. The city provides pickup through a third-party vendor, while the bins themselves come from the SWA. County garbage that is not recycled is converted to electricity at renewable energy facilities, which is why the standing advice on doubtful items is to throw them out rather than contaminate a load.
Frequently Asked Questions
What goes in the yellow bin in West Palm Beach?
Paper products: newspapers, magazines and catalogs, unwanted mail, school and office papers, phone books, paper bags, and all cardboard boxes including beverage cartons, tissue boxes, dry food boxes, and corrugated cardboard. Boxes must be flattened and cut to a 3 foot by 3 foot maximum. See our paper recycling guide.
What goes in the blue bin?
Recyclable containers: plastic containers numbered 1 through 7, steel cans, aluminum cans, glass bottles and jars, drink boxes, and milk and juice cartons. The SWA says you do not need to wash or rinse them, but no food or beverage should remain inside.
Can I recycle aluminum foil and pie plates?
No. The Solid Waste Authority's processing mills and aluminum buyers no longer accept aluminum foil and pie plates as recyclable material, so the city asks residents to put them in the garbage. They will likely be processed at a Renewable Energy Facility and turned into electricity instead.
What should never go in either recycling bin?
Plastic bags, foam products, utensils or straws, aluminum foil or pans, paper towels, plates or napkins, coat hangers, batteries, and light bulbs. Contamination affects the marketability of everything collected, so the SWA's rule for uncertain items is to throw them out.
How do I get new or replacement recycling bins?
Bins are provided through the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County, so contact the SWA rather than the city. The SWA runs a bin request service for residents whose bins are broken or who consistently have more recyclables than their containers hold, and a Recycling Field Team member follows up.
Recycling tips for West Palm Beach
•Keep paper in the yellow bin and containers in the blue bin, since this is dual-stream and not single-stream.
•Flatten cardboard and cut it down to 3 feet by 3 feet or smaller.
•Remove all packing material from boxes before they go into the yellow bin.
•Put aluminum foil and pie plates in the garbage, because the SWA no longer markets them.
•Leave your recycling bins for the next resident when you move instead of discarding them.
