Constantly seeking new technologies and services that will not only preserve our environment, but also provide more efficient and economical collection, recycling, and disposal of waste materials. Recycling, less energy is required than when using virgin resources, both in the initial extraction of resources and in manufacturing new products. Recycling conserves valuable natural resources and saves materials that would otherwise be buried in landfills. For the environment, processing recyclables into new goods produces far less air, water and land pollution. Recycling costs money, but it is still a good investment. The revenue derived by selling your recyclable materials offsets about 20% of the costs of offering the service. These short-termed costs are offset by long-term gains of saving resources, energy and landfill space. Sustaining a healthier environment and preserving our finite resources for future generations is why Allied Waste of Corvallis has made a commitment to recycling. Please become a part of this growing endeavor. · Most of our customers were delivered a 65-gallon roll cart for recycling in 2008, replacing the old 14-gallon bin. The quality of our recycling is just as important as the quantity. Not only do we work to increase the amount of material being recycled in our area, but we also strive to keep our recyclable materials as free of contamination as possible, conserving resources and energy. We will provide you with a 65-gallon tan cart for commingled recycling and a gray bin for GLASS ONLY. Just follow the examples below to correctly prepare your recyclables for collection. Click here for a printable list of items to recycle in your tan cart . Click here to confirm what goes in the Green Waste Cart.

If your recycling is contaminated or contains materials that cannot be recycled, your driver may not empty your cart. The driver will tag your cart with information about how to correct this problem and will return the following week to pick up your recycling with the contamination removed.

Remember: your cart should be out to the curb by 7 a.m. for collection.
