City-branded trash, recycling and yard trimmings carts will be delivered around Fort Collins at addresses included in the city’s new program.
The Fort Collins’ new contracted trash and recycling program begins collection September 30. The city’s contractor – Republic Services – will distribute the new carts for the program through September 27th.
Seven to 10 days ahead of their expected cart delivery date, residents will receive a postcard in the mail with detailed cart delivery information:
The new recycling carts are funded in part by a $664,000 grant from The Recycling Partnership, a purpose-driven organization committed to building a better recycling system, with support from the American Beverage Association’s “Every Bottle Back” initiative and the Colorado Beverage Association.
The Recycling Partnership selected Fort Collins to receive grant support because of the city’s longstanding dedication to advancing recycling. They will partner with the city on recycling education and technical assistance to help ensure that everyone can and does recycle.
“The Recycling Partnership is honored to partner with yet another Colorado community to deploy our best practices in recycling access and engagement to the city of Fort Collins,” said Rob Taylor, vice president of grants & community development at the Recycling Partnership.
