Add or Replace Recycling Container
There are two types of recycling containers:
- • Carts, intended to hold mixed recyclable material such as paper, cardboard, plastic and aluminum cans
- • Glass bins, intended to hold only clean glass bottles and jars.
You can request a replacement for your damaged or missing recycling container or request an additional container online if you:
- • live in a single-family residence
- • have a missing or damaged recycling cart or glass bin
- • have only one recycling cart or glass bin and consistently have too much recycling to fit in your containers.
You will need your current billing statement to replace or obtain additional recycling container(s).
If you do not live in a single-family residence please call SPU Customer Service at (206) 684-3000 for assistance
