City Manager Announces New Recycling Schedule and Guidelines

On January 1st Clifton City Manager Nick Villano announced changes to the city’s curbside recycling program. The collection schedule will now include pickup every two weeks and require only two separated materials, changed from mandatory source separation.

Villano indicated the city hopes the simplified rules and increased pickup will encourage residents to recycle more frequently.

Residents are also encouraged to download the Recycle Coach app, that sends text message reminders for collection days. The app can also help residents learn to recycle correctly with searchable descriptions of how to dispose of different recyclables. Because not all items are recyclable, this will help reduce contamination in the recycle stream.
