As of January 1, 2026, all IC&I locations must be registered with us to continue receiving recycling collection. Please read the IC&I Letter for more information.
If you haven’t registered with us yet, please complete the Online IC&I Form for continued recycling collection. You also have the option to download a printable form and drop it off to our office.
Please see below for a list of acceptable & unacceptable items, and recycling tips.
Recycling is an important way to reduce what we send to landfill and capture materials that can be made into new materials! Recycling programs vary from municipality to municipality, so it’s always best to check and be sure you can recycle it – don’t be a “wish-cycler”!
Please Remember to...
- Empty
All acceptable bags, cartons, cups, cans, containers & foam packaging.
- Keep free from food residue
All cartons, food & beverage cups, cans, containers & bags, meat trays, plates & foam packaging.

At the curb...
- Place recyclables loose in your blue cart
Do not bag materials.
- Flatten boxboard and cardboard
Tie large amounts of cardboard in bundles no more than 30 inches x 30 inches or placed loose in a box no more than 24 inches x 24 inches and 30 inches high. Place beside your blue cart.
- Shredded paper goes in your blue cart
Place inside a tied clear plastic bag and place in your blue cart.
- Do not place blue carts on snow banks, icy surfaces
or on the road.
Instead, shovel a part of the curb area to make room for your carts and cardboard OR if possible, them at the end of the driveway to ensure safety of waste collectors. GFL cannot collect any waste placed on snow banks or buried in snow.
