RECYCLING CHANGES IN O'FALLON THE RECYCLING CHANGES STARTED ON MONDAY OCTOBER 29TH, 2018.
The recycling industry has changed significantly in 2018, and it is now impacting cities around the world, especially “single stream” recyclers like the City of O’Fallon. China, which had been the world’s largest importer of recyclables, no longer allows single stream recyclable materials from the United States. Since China was the primary market for single stream materials, all cities using single stream must change their recycling programs or face significantly higher costs and customer rates or consider ending recycling. O’FALLON’S NEW CURBSIDE RECYCLING PROGRAM WILL NOW ONLY PICK UP THE FOLLOWING ITEMS: • Glass bottles and jars • Aluminum cans • Tin cans • Plastic containers (clear or colored) with a recycle symbol on them (no black plastic, #4 or #6 please) All materials must be EMPTY, CLEAN and DRY or they will not be accepted/recycled! • Do not bag your recycling!
O’FALLON’S NEW CURBSIDE RECYCLING PROGRAM WILL NO LONGER ALLOW THE FOLLOWING: PAPER AND CARDBOARD WILL NOW BE ACCEPTED THROUGH OUR DROP-OFF SERVICE ONLY! • Paper and cardboard will be collected for recycling at the O’Fallon Environmental Services building at 1550 Progress West Lane, O’Fallon, MO 63366, Tuesday through Friday, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Look for other paper and cardboard drop-off options to be announced in 2019. • Acceptable paper products include: o Newspapers, inserts and magazines o Telephone books o Computer paper o Junk mail o Brown grocery bags • Flattened corrugated cardboard boxes, small pieces of cardboard and pressed fiber (such as cereal boxes, shoe boxes and tissue boxes) will be accepted too, but these items must be kept separate from other paper products. • When in doubt, throw it out! The items listed in the Allowed for Curbside Pickup section are the only items that may be recycled. As much as we might want everything to be recyclable, many things are not. In fact, making too many mistakes can cause even the good materials to go to the landfills. Instead of “wishful recycling,” if you are not sure about something, let it go to the landfill to avoid contamination.
