Volusia County offers curbside recycling for paper, cardboard, glass, aluminum, and plastics #1-#2. Contamination with plastic bags or food waste causes bin rejection. FL DEP 75% recycling goal under §403.7032.
Volusia County and its municipalities provide single-stream curbside recycling collecting paper, cardboard, glass (clear/brown/green), aluminum and steel cans, and plastic bottles/jugs marked #1 (PET) and #2 (HDPE). Many programs no longer accept #3-#7 plastics due to downstream market changes. Contamination — plastic bags, Styrofoam, food-soiled containers, yard waste, diapers, tanglers (hoses, wire) — causes bin tagging and skip. Florida Statutes §403.7032 sets a statewide 75% recycling goal though counties face challenges meeting it. Multi-family properties above specific unit counts may have commercial recycling requirements under local code. Yard waste runs as a separate weekly route. Coastal tourist areas (Daytona Beach boardwalk, NSB Flagler Ave) contend with visitor contamination in public recycling.
Contaminated bins: tagged and skipped. Repeat contamination: $25 to $100 fine. Commercial non-compliance: up to $500 per occurrence.
