Orange County provides 65-gallon recycling carts with biweekly collection. Accepted: paper, cardboard, plastic bottles/jugs #1-2, aluminum, steel cans, glass bottles. Not accepted: plastic bags, film, styrofoam, clothing, batteries. Contamination over 25 percent may result in cart rejection.
Single-stream recycling program. Orange County diversion goal is 75 percent per FL §403.7032 but state recycling mandate was repealed. Contamination is a major issue; the county runs education campaigns to reduce wishful recycling. Cardboard must be flattened. No bagged recyclables. Glass accepted curbside (one of few FL counties).
