City of Foley Sanitation Department
BALDWIN COUNTY RECYCLING
Description:
The sanitation department provides regularly scheduled curbside pickup of household garbage, recycling, yard debris, and bulk items.
ACCEPTED ITEMS:
The city accepts aluminum and steel cans, plastic containers or packing, paper and cardboard and cartons for curbside recycling. All plastic and metal containers should be emptied and rinsed before being placed in the bins. Unacceptable items include food waste, foam containers or packing, glass, yard wastes and plastic bags. Any food or liquid in a container, such as grease or tomato paste in a pizza box, is considered a contaminant that will make the item unacceptable. Grocery bags can clog the machinery used to process plastic material. Bags should be taken to local stores that accept those items for separate processing.
