Take Time to Recycle & Compost Right

Here are some simple rules for using our recycling and composting program. If you have questions, look on the lid of your containers for instruction or download the fliers at the bottom of this page. There is also this helpful video.

Recycling materials:

• Paper: including junk mail, newspapers, magazine
• Cardboard: including cereal boxes, shipping boxes, shoeboxes
• Containers: EMPTY containers made of plastic, metal, aluminum, and glass, including bottles and cans.

Compost Materials

• Yard Debris: including grass clippings, tree and shrub limbs
• Soiled Paper and Cardboard: including pizza boxes, paper towels, napkins

The City of Kyle contracts with Texas Disposal Systems to offer a comprehensive solid waste program that provides each customer with the opportunity to reduce garbage by recycling paper, most containers, yard debris, and other compostable materials. It is important to recycle right to be sure that recycling and composting material is not contaminated with garbage. Putting garbage in the recycling or compost containers could send that material to the landfill and end up costing us all more in the future.
