We're on a Roll: Recycling Carts are Coming!
The City of Absecon, through a grant with The Recycling Partnership and the help of the Atlantic County Utilities Authority (ACUA), will be providing all homeowners with new 96-gallon recycling carts.
The new curbside recycling carts have two wheels for easy maneuvering and a lid to keep recyclables from becoming litter. Your cart is going to make recycling easier by providing more space to recycle more items accepted in our recycling program - a true win-win.
Your new recycling cart will be delivered to your home in late September. This cart will be the primary container your home uses for recycling.
Additional information will be distributed along with the carts and will be available on the City's website.
