Serving Brooklyn Center, Crystal and New Hope We Make Recycling Easy
 

Curbside Recycling

Put acceptable items in your recycling cart loose - never in bags. Have your cart at the end or your driveway or on the boulevard by 6:30 a.m. on collection day, and at least three feet from other objects. Crews have until 6:00 p.m. to finish. See the list of what's acceptable at the bottom of the page, or click on the magnifying glass icon that says Can I Recycle This.

If you don't see your address, or have other questions, please email HRG at BPOM@BrooklynPark.org
