Recycling
The City of Waco offers recycling as part of its service to residential customers. Recycling is “single-stream” (also known as “commingled”), which means that a variety of materials besides paper can all go into the recycling container. The list below shows all of the items that can be recycled. Be sure to look for our new, split-load trucks – they service your route more efficiently and economically!
