    • A reduction in the amount of material going to the landfill.
    • A reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

    • Styrofoam®, plastic film, wrap, and bags, and snack packaging belong in your GARBAGE cart.
    • Food scraps and food-soiled paper belong in your ORGANICS cart.
    • Make sure recyclable plastic, metal, and glass food containers are empty and dry before placing them in the RECYCLABLES cart.
