Recycling

Recycling is required of all City residents.

The City of Mountain Park has a great recycling program. Everyone participates, and as a result, we keep a large volume of material out of landfills. Before you recycle, try to reduce the amount you recycle by reusing items to keep them out of the recycle stream.

  • Reduce the amount you recycle.
  • Make wise packaging selections. Select products that are not wasteful in their packaging.
  • Practice composting
  • Reuse containers and products.
  • Buy only what you need and use what you bought
  • As much as possible, buy products with recycled content

 

Dumpster

As a service to our residents, the City of Mountain Park provides a dumpster twice a year. This is on a first-come, first serve basis. In order to ensure that it is available to all please adhere to the following guidelines:

  •  One truckload or trailer load per resident address.
  •  All yard debris must be cut into 3 feet sections or less.
  •  Items not allowed in dumpster: concrete/brick, dirt, gravel/rock, paint, ashes, oil/grease, hazardous waste, chemicals, sewage, metal or plastic drums/barrels, anything containing freon, batteries 

 

Yard Waste

Legacy Disposal offers up to 3 bags of yard waste for curbside pickup.

Residents are encouraged to recycle all yard debris by mulching and composting.
