Recycling Guide

recycling guideFor over 70 year, Kimble Recycling and Disposal has provided convenient recycling service to our Eastern Ohio customers. Take a minute to learn about our easy recycling program and what we recycle. 

Contamination in the recycling stream is making it difficult to process clean recyclable material. Items such as plastic bags, food residue, styrofoam, batteries, electronics, etc. are among the top contaminates and are not accepted at our recycling center. 

If your item is not on the approved list please put it directly into the trash. All items should be clean, dry and placed loosely (unbagged) into your recycling cart. Together, we can help protect the environment and build a more sustainable future.

RECYCLING RIGHT - In 3 Easy Steps...

step 1

When in doubt... THROW IT OUT!

Make sure that all items are on the Kimble Recycling Center's approved list of accepted recyclables. If the item is not on the list or if you are unsure, place it directly into the trash.

step 2

Recyclables must be clean and dry.

Food and liquid are contaminates. No dirty jars or bottles with water still in them. Cardboard must also be clean and dry.

No need to sort or bag your items.
