Katy provides single-stream curbside recycling through Texas Pride Disposal, with accepted materials including paper, cardboard, metal cans, glass, and plastic bottles and jugs.
Recycling collection in Katy is part of the city's solid waste contract under Article 13.02. Residents place empty, clean, and dry cardboard, paper, metal cans, glass, plastic bottles, and plastic jugs loosely in the recycling cart. Items should not be bagged. Plastic bags, food waste, hazardous materials, and electronics are excluded. The recycling cart is set out at the curb the same way as the garbage cart and collected on the resident's assigned day by Texas Pride Disposal.
Placing prohibited materials in the recycling cart, bagging recyclables, or contaminating loads with food or liquids can lead to refused service and stickered carts under city solid waste rules.
