Lexington operates a two-sort recycling program: paper is separated from plastic, glass, metal, and aseptic containers (milk and juice boxes). If you do not have a separate recycling bin for paper, you may put mixed paper in a paper bag in the same bin as other recyclables.

Recycling is MANDATORY in Lexington. If recyclables appear in trash, JRM will sticker item and leave it behind. Place recyclables at curb at least 8’ away from trash. Place recycle bins out by 7 A.M. on your
collection day

Please rinse all food and beverage containers and crush cans.

Please call or visit website for more information.
