Morris County Municipal Utilities Authority (MCMUA) Recycling Inspectors will be checking your recycling, tagging unacceptable items, and leaving behind contaminated recycling bins.
Due to these strict requirements for collecting only acceptable materials in the recycling stream, the MCMUA may leave those recycling setouts with unacceptable items at the curb. After contaminated recyclables are left at the curb, residents will have to CORRECT the issues and wait until the following scheduled recycling collection to put their now acceptable recyclables out for curbside collection. So, when in doubt, throw it out and keep your acceptable recyclables clean, empty, and dry.
Find out which items are acceptable for recycling by visiting the MCMUA's website.
