The trailer is from Jackson County Recycle Center. They pick it up and empty it.

You do not have to be specific as far as what area you put your recycling in. If the outside ways "Cardboard" and that bin is full when you have cardboard to leave; LEAVE THE CARDBOARD IN A BIN THAT HAS ROOM. They would rather have a full trailer when they take it so fill it up no matter what bin is what. I like to tell people - the words on the outside are suggestions only.

Please put your items in bags when possible
