See the color-coded Recycling Collection Schedule (PDF) for a weekly breakdown of the collection schedule.
Make sure your recycling cart is placed at the curb by 7 am on the day of collection. The lid must be closed and placed facing the curb. Large cardboard boxes must be broken down to fit inside the cart.
Please do not place your old recycling bin in your new recycling cart. Residents are encouraged to repurpose their old recycling bins or drop them off at the Rhode Island Resource Recovery Small Vehicle Disposal Area for free recycling. Residents can also place their empty old recycling bins out for collection with their weekly refuse.
