Do you have more recyclables that will fit in Your green recycling cart?

Flatten all boxes, and pack the flattened boxes into another box that you set next to your cart

After removing packing peanuts, styrofoam packing, plastic pillows, ect., flatten your boxes and stuff them into another box.

Also flattened cereal boxes, snack boxes, pop case boxes, cracker boxes, ect.

Milk jugs and water bottles take up a lot of space, but are easily flattened. 

Make sure all materials in your cart are curbside recyclable!
