Olathe, KS 66061
Place your recycling items commingled loosely in your city-provided blue recycling cart. Set your cart at the curb by 8 am on your scheduled trash collection day. Recyclables will be picked up separate from your household's trash, by a recycling truck.
All residential solid waste customers have access to recycling at the curb. The city provides residents with a 65-gallon blue recycling cart. Recylables are collected every other week using a red/blue route system. The cost of curbside recycling is included in the base rate, along with weekly trash and yard waste collection and access to the city's year-round household hazardous waste facility.
