New Orleans Recycling Routes

So I got my shiny new New Orleans Recycling bin and started filling it up. Bad news was, I had no idea when they were coming.

New Orleans Recycling Routes

So I emailed Richard’s Disposal Service (btw, I love that the trash company does email so effectively) and they emailed me a route map and the guide for what can go in the can.

• Richard’s Disposal New Orleans Recycling Routes
• Richard’s Disposal: What Goes in The Can

Don’t get me wrong, I’m sad to see Phoenix go since they really took an entrepreneurial risk in entering a market know one knew was there and I wish them well.

I’m so excited to have the City of New Orleans recycling and to have a nice can to put stuff in. Feels like the 21st century If you need a recycling can, go to the city site and request one here.

If you are with another disposal service and would like me to make contact, let me know in the comments.

     Emma,

     You should check to see if your regular garbage service is with Richard’s if it is you can get in touch with them here: http://www.richardsdisposal.com/

     I’m seeing what your’e seeing on the map, but I’m not sure if it’s just not their area or they’re phasing it in.

       Hi Gary and Connie, I’m not sure when Metro picks up. I’ll reach out and see if I can find a schedule.
