Recycling collection occurs twice per month (bi-weekly) on your designated recycling day. Each household receives a 96-gallon green recycling cart provided by Progressive Waste Solutions. IMPORTANT: Glass is NOT accepted in Hialeah curbside recycling - dispose of glass bottles and jars in regular trash. All recyclable containers must be empty, clean, and dry before placing in the green recycling cart. Rinse food and beverage containers thoroughly. Place items loosely in the cart - do NOT bag recyclables or use plastic bags inside the cart. Flatten cardboard boxes to save space. Keep cart lid fully closed. Do not overfill - if cart lid does not close, remove excess items. Place cart at curb with wheels facing your home and handles facing the street by 6:00 AM on collection day. Remove cart from curb by end of collection day. Never package recyclable materials. Contaminated recycling (food, liquids, non-recyclables) may result in entire cart being rejected and counted as trash. When in doubt, throw it out. For cart repairs, replacement, or size concerns, call Progressive Waste at (305) 638-3800. Check your zone's recycling schedule at the interactive map: hialeahfl.gov/recycling or call (305) 687-2630.
