Prepare Your Recycling

1. Use the Recycling Cart or Containers located at your multi-family complex.
2. Review the list of What Goes in the Recycling Container?.


Contamination, such as one ceramic cup mixed in with recyclable glass, can ruin the whole batch and damage processing equipment. Make sure only recyclable items are put into the Blue Recycling Cart or Container! This will result in less items being disposed of as garbage and more items being manufactured into new products.

  • Why Recycle?

    • Recycling makes economic sense! It's less expensive to recycle materials than to bury them in a landfill or burn them in an incinerator. If everything went into the garbage, garbage rates would be much higher.
    • Recyclables are taken to Rabanco's Recycling Processing Facility in Seattle. Recyclables are sorted, baled and sent to recycling mills, where they are made into new products.
    • Recyclables can be made into new products:
      • Plastic bottles become new fleece clothing and carpeting.
      • Cardboard becomes new cardboard.
      • Tin cans become new rebar for construction projects.
      • Newspaper becomes fruit packing trays and new paper.
      • Glass becomes new glass bottles and jars.
      • Aluminum cans become new aluminum cans.
    • Recycling conserves natural resources and saves energy! Every ton of recycled paper saves trees, electricity and water, resulting in less air and water pollution than manufacturing a ton of paper from virgin wood pulp.

    Preventing Waste is Even Better Than Recycling!
    Before you buy, use or discard an item, ask yourself:

    • Can I buy this with less packaging?
    • Can I buy this made with recycled content?
    • Can I use this again?
    • Can I recycle this after I use it?

    You can reduce waste by Reusing, Recycling and Buying Recycled.
