Denver Recycles to Launch New Recycling Program in June 2005

The expanded recycling program will include: junk mail, mixed office-type paper, magazines, corrugated cardboard, single layer paperboard (such as cereal and cracker boxes), phonebooks, brown paper bags.

The second component of the program will be to phase out the use of recycling bins. Over a period of three to five years, Denver Recycles will replace the two purple bins with one, larger, wheeled cart. These carts will be collected using new, fully automated collection trucks.
