When will I get my new bin?

If you place your order	we will deliver your new bin between
by Friday at 2:00 p.m.	by the end of Friday next week
after Friday at 2:00 p.m.	by the end of Friday in two weeks

We will place your new bin near your door or garage. You do not need to be home to receive it.

Blue bin deliveries are made by County staff, not by your recycling collection crew. They may happen any weekday, and not necessarily on your recycling day.

How do I recycle until my new bin arrives?

Collect your recyclables in a small cardboard box. If we haven't delivered your new bin by your recycling day, set the cardboard box out at the curb, just as you would do with your bin.

Will you pick up my old bin?

Yes. In fact, we recycle the broken bins we collect. Request pickup of your old blue bin.
