Uptown On-Street Recycling Program

Pedestrians have the opportunity to Recycle it! in Uptown by using any of the 80 on-street recycling containers that currently line the streets. The recycling containers were funded by the Energy grant awarded to the City in 2010.

If you are taking a stroll through Uptown and have recyclables to dispose of, please remember to Recycle it!
