Recycling bin pick-up resumes on Siesta Key beginning the week of Oct. 17.
Here are some important reminders for residents in unincorporated Sarasota County about recyclable materials:
- Place recyclable materials loosely in the cart.
- Any recyclable materials with food and beverage residue are considered contaminated and should be placed in the trash for disposal.
- All recyclable materials should fit in the cart with the lid should be securely closed.
- To maximize space in your recycling cart, flatten/cut boxes and crush cans and soft plastics.
- Materials left outside of the recycling cart will not be collected.
- Only place recyclable materials in the cart. Do not use it for trash and/or yard waste.
Recycling collection was suspended on Wednesday, Sept. 28, due to impacts of Hurricane Ian.
While recycling collection is expected to run on schedule, on your normal pick-up day, delays may occur due to collection trucks navigating roadway debris and other collection trucks.
