Recycling

Why Recycle?

Recycling conserves natural resources, protects the environment and reduces litter. It's easy for all Tulsans to recycle. All City of Tulsa customers with residential trash service can sign up for convenient curbside recycling. Items eligible for recycling include:
 newspapers
 junk mail,
 magazines,
 office paper,
 plastics (labeled 1 and 2)
 glass
 aluminum

Tulsans also can take those and other recyclables to one of the 12 free drop-off sites in the area operated by the Metropolitan Environmental Trust. See the chart below which lists what additional materials can be recycled at M.e.t. depots, or visit the Met website for more info, www.metrecycles.com.

Also, you can recycle many household pollutants at one of the twice annual Household Pollutant Collection events.
