[ARCHIVED] Curbside Recycling Ends April 1st

On April 1, 2020, Atlantic Waste will end curbside recycling pick-up on Tybee Island. Because of this, the City is requesting that residents participate in a voluntary recycling drop-off program.

There are four locations where residents may drop off their recyclables. Recycling trailers are located in Memorial Park, Jaycee Park, and on the west side of Polk Street between Fort Avenue and Bay Street.

Residents may also drop off their recyclables at the Department of Public Works (DPW) Facility located at 76 Polk Street. The trailers are available 24 hours a day, but the DPW facility is open between the hours 7:30 AM to 3:30 PM weekdays, and 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM on the weekends.

The City is currently accepting the following recyclable materials at all locations:

  • Plastics #1 and #2
  • Aluminum cans and bottles
  • Tin Cans
  • Cardboard
  • Mixed paper – office, newspaper, and magazines

The recycling trailers each have four compartments to separate your recyclables. Plastics #1 and #2 will go in one compartment; aluminum and tin cans will go in one compartment; mixed paper in one compartment; and cardboard in the last compartment. Please put the appropriate materials in the designated compartment.

At the DPW facility, there are separate dumpsters for cardboard, plastics, aluminum and tin, and a separate smaller dumpster for mixed paper. Staff will direct you to the appropriate bins.

Please separate recyclables and put them in the appropriate containers. In addition, please breakdown cardboard prior to putting it into the containers to allow more material to fit.
