Beginning July 2, the City of Decatur Sanitation department will be collecting recycling. We will no longer be using a private contractor to provide this service.
What does this mean for you?
Your recycling collection will remain on the same day as your scheduled sanitation day. Please continue to separate your glass recycling from the comingled recyclables. See below for what can and cannot be recycled.
Potential Impacts
While your collection day remains the same, the time when your recycling is collected may change. . Please be patient during the transition period. If your recycling has not been picked up by 3:30 pm on your recycling collection day, please contact the Public Works Department at 404-377-5571 or [email protected].
Glass Recycling Bins
All glass must now be placed in a red recycling bin. You may use your existing red bin or request one by contacting the Public Works Department at 404-377-5571 or [email protected].
