Norman's curbside recycling is narrower than most: only plastics numbered 1 and 2 go in the polycart, and glass is excluded entirely and has to go to a Norman Recycling Center. The city runs its own compost facility, giving residents free compost if they load it themselves, and it partners on community food-scrap drop-off sites. Getting the plastic numbers right is the single biggest contamination issue here.
Only plastics marked 1 and 2, such as clean milk jugs, beverage containers, detergent jugs, and shampoo and conditioner bottles. Plastics marked 3 through 7 are not accepted, including yogurt and cottage cheese containers, margarine tubs, prescription vials, garden pots, trays, cups, and plates. See our plastic recycling guide.
Not at the curb. Glass of any kind is excluded from the polycart, but it can be dropped off at any Norman Recycling Center. Mirrors and ceramic items are not accepted either way.
Loose in the polycart. If you prefer to carry them out in a bag, use a paper bag and place it in the cart, since paper bags are recyclable and do not interfere with the separator machinery. Plastic bags are not allowed in the recycle stream and can be taken to Walmart, Lowe's, Sam's Club, or Target instead.
Yes for Norman residents who load it themselves and show a current City of Norman utility bill. If it is loaded for you there is a $10 loading fee per scoop, roughly 3 cubic yards or 2,000 pounds. Accepted yard waste is leaves, grass clippings, and limbs no longer than 4 feet and no more than 2 inches in diameter, and contaminated loads with paper, rocks, bricks, or trash are rejected.
The city partners with Fertile Ground on a community food scrap drop-off program with two Norman locations: the Norman Recycling Center at 3001 E. Alameda and Gray Owl Coffee Shop at 223 E. Gray Street. Participants watch a short tutorial and complete a quiz to receive the bin combination code, and all types of food waste are accepted in bio bags or paper bags.
