Coming in January 2025 - Recycling Upgrade
- 2025 PICK UP COLLECTION SCHEDULE
- Rolling out a better way to recycle!
- What happens to the recycling I put in my cart?
Your recycling goes to the City of St. Peters’ Recycle City facility, where it is sorted and sent to processors that make new products like cardboard boxes and packaging for food and medical supplies. We don’t mix garbage and recycling at the curb, although the separate collection trucks may look identical.
As of December, the hauler is not dropping any more blue bags if you tie a bag on.
Please email the solid waste department if you need a couple blue bags to get you through until your recycling container is received.
Residential recycling containers can be utilized now and set out for collection the week of January 6, 2025 for routine collection. Containers need to be placed at the curb by 6:30 am on the day of collection with the lid closed.
**If you live within a multi-family complex, such as an apartment or condominium, contact the solid waste department with your name & address requesting blue bags. When your Blue Bag is full place the Blue Bag in one of the dumpsters at your complex along with your trash bags. When the driver picks up the trash and Blue Bags from the dumpster, the load will be taken to Recycle City for sorting and the Blue Bag items will be recycled.
