Recycling in Lincoln, Nebraska

Lincoln does not bill every house for a city recycling cart. Many garbage collectors sell weekly curbside recycling for a fee. Residents who skip that subscription can use the city's recyclables collection sites at no charge. The landfill no longer takes clean, dry corrugated cardboard, so that material has to go to a recycling option instead. Nebraska has no bottle deposit.

No. The landfill no longer accepts clean and dry corrugated cardboard, for residents or businesses. Recycling sites and haulers are the route for that cardboard.
