Recycling is a series of steps which create a loop: the first step begins with you when you identify a recyclable item, toss it in the appropriate bag or bin, and place those at the curb or take them to a recycling drop-off.
It is a good idea to bag all trash and place it in a closed container to protect it from the weather, insects, and animals. Debris such as dirt, concrete, rocks, bricks, building materials, sand, gravel, and other bulky, heavy materials should be contained and collected in small amounts.

People are encouraged to drop off their old, expired, or damaged car seats to one of their locations to be safely recycled and kept out of our landfills.
