Where does my recycling go?
Here at Recyclops, we want to make sure there’s no confusion on where your recycling is headed. After your bags are picked up they are taken to a nearby recycling facility where they are emptied, sorted, and processed. Through Recyclops; waste that would normally end up in landfills is diverted and taken to a facility to be recycled instead!

Recycling Guidelines
What you need to know to get started.
- You will receive Recyclops bags to put your recycling into. Please use your own bags until you receive your roll of Recyclops bags.
- Blue Recyclops bags are for plastic, cans, small cardboard & paper. (No need to sort these recyclables.)
- Large cardboard does not need to be bagged. Please flatten and place under your bags.
- We will be unable to pick up recycling that isn’t bagged (other than large flattened cardboard).
- Please place your recycling on your private property, such as the corner of your driveway. Do not place it on city right-of-ways (such as the area between a sidewalk and street) or on the street, as this could cause the items to be picked up as regular trash.
*Using these bags helps keep recycling clean and helps protect Recyclops drivers from injury.
