Converse offers curbside single-stream recycling through its contracted hauler. Participation is voluntary but encouraged. Accepted materials include paper, cardboard, plastics 1-2, and metal cans.
Converse provides curbside recycling collection through the same contracted hauler that handles trash. Residents receive a separate recycling cart for single-stream (commingled) recyclables. Accepted materials typically include clean cardboard and paperboard, office paper and newsprint, plastic bottles and jugs marked #1 and #2, aluminum and steel cans, and glass bottles and jars (rinse before placing). Items not accepted include plastic bags, styrofoam, food-soiled containers, pizza boxes with grease, electronics, hazardous materials, and yard waste. Contamination (wet paper, food residue, non-recyclables) can cause entire loads to be rejected. Recycling is collected on a different schedule than trash, often every other week. Participation is not mandatory, but the city encourages recycling to extend landfill capacity.
