Every permitted Overland Park hauler must collect recycling at least weekly, provide a cart, and fold the cost into the basic service charge with unlimited volume. Glass stays out of the curbside cart and goes to the city Recycling Center.
Municipal Code 7.36.115(A)(2) makes curbside recycling a mandatory hauler service, not an optional upgrade, and bars any volume cap. Waste Management asked the city in 2021 to allow every-other-week collection; the Community Development Committee took no action and a draft ordinance, SW-3362, was never codified, so the weekly requirement stands as of July 2026. Residents themselves face no recycling mandate. Curbside covers household recyclables excluding glass. The drop-off Recycling Center at 11921 Hardy serves residents without curbside service, open Tuesday through Friday 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., last entry 3:50 p.m., closed Sunday and Monday and on eight 2026 holidays. Apartments are served by a separate multifamily glass recycling program.
Placing non-recyclables in a recycling container on purpose, or scavenging from one, is a prohibited act under OPMC 7.36.190.
