Roseburg Disposal will begin rolling out more than 10,000 new recycling carts to customers this month. Each cart will be delivered with a packet of information, including a Recycling Guide and other program details.

A collection calendar is included in the packet. Customers can begin setting out their new cart for collection starting the week of May 4th on their regular pick-up day.

The rollout is supported by Oregon’s Extended Producer Responsibility program for packaging and paper, which requires producers to help fund improvements to the state’s recycling program, which requires producers to help fund improvements to the state’s recycling system. Circular Action Alliance Oregon, the non-profit producer responsible for implementing the program, provided nearly $2 million to Roseburg Disposal for new recycling cats, containers and two new recycling trucks.

Roseburg Disposal owner Dori John said, “These new carts and updated information will make it easier for customers to recycle more at home”. John said, “Please review the Recycling Guide in your packet, follow the set-out calendar, and place recyclables empty, dry, and loose in the cart to help keep materials clean and collections running smoothly”.
