Information about curbside recycling. Recycling, along with
reducing and reusing the trash we produce, is an important
component in the effort to preserve our natural resources and
reduce environmental pollution. Each Albuquerque resident throws
away 6.5 pounds of trash every day, or over one ton each year!
Recycling, along with reducing and reusing the trash we produce,
is an important component in the effort to preserve our natural
resources and reduce environmental pollution. The Solid Waste
Management Department provides curbside pick-up of recyclables
every week at most residential homes within the City of
Albuquerque. We also provide convenient city-wide Recycling
Drop-off Sites. With these services, every community member can
help preserve the environment for future generations by
recycling. To ensure best service, safety, and health, please
help us by: - placing all materials on curb no later than 7 a.m.
on your scheduled trash pick-up day. - making sure recyclables
are clearly recognizable and access
