Recycling in Delaware

 

Curbside recycling is now available throughout much of the state

Waste haulers must provide recycling collection to:

  • Single-family residential customers and most restaurants/bars by September 15, 2011
  • Multi-family residential customers (i.e. apartment complexes) by January 1, 2013

Commercial businesses will be required to participate in a comprehensive recycling program no later than January 1, 2014.

The goal is to maximize the convenience of recycling and minimize the amount of trash disposed in Delaware. Recycling will reduce our disposal costs, keep raw materials in the manufacturing sector, support jobs, and promote sustainability.
