Plastic, glass and metal materials must be empty, rinsed clean and dry. Bundle all plastic bags and plastic overwrap in one plastic bag and tie shut.
Corrugated cardboard is to be tied in bundles no larger than 4 ft x 4 ft x 1 ft (120cm x 120 cm x 30 cm).
You can mix all recyclable material into the same Blue Box or clear plastic bag.
