    • Yellow bag: Paper: newspaper, office paper, junk mail, magazines, and bagged-shredded-paper
    • Green bag: Everything else:
      • Plastics: containers #1, #2 or #5. No plastic bags (except around shredded paper) and no Styrofoam.
      • Metals: aluminum cans and rinsed steel cans.
      • Glass: unbroken glass bottles and jars

Pick up times: Recyclables will be picked up every other Tuesday. Place filled bags at curbside or front yard where our drivers can easily see them.  Have bags out by 8:00 am. CVR will collect filled bags and replace them with empty bags when we collect. Recyclers can put out a rock, brick, etc. to anchor new bags. We will text you the day before pick-up as a reminder.

Got Cardboard? Cardboard can be broken down and stuffed into an intact box. We will pick it up alongside the bags. Large cardboard can be dropped at the Swink warehouse on Wednesdays or Saturdays.

Volunteer Program | Curbside

In order to sustain our recycling operation and continue serving our communities, the monthly rate for residential curbside collection will has increased to $15/month. We understand that rising costs affect everyone, so we’re offering a Volunteer for Curbside option as a way to supplement the cost of service.

Participants can volunteer 5 hours per month with Clean Valley Recycling in exchange for free monthly curbside service. Volunteer tasks may include sorting materials, assisting with e-waste breakdown, cleaning, staging the store, or other support roles based on current needs.

We want this program to be accessible and inclusive. If you have limited ability, scheduling challenges, or physical restrictions, please reach out—we are happy to work with you to find a role that fits your abilities. If you have a special skill or trade to offer, we’d love to explore how it can support our mission.

This program is a way to support Clean Valley, stay engaged with your community, and keep recycling affordable, while helping us continue providing essential services.

Please follow fill out the form to get started. You can also contact us directly with questions. 719-468-0254.
