The City of the Colony in partnership with Allied Waste is pleased to bring its citizens a simplified and expanded curbside recycling program. By participating, you help to conserve valuable landfill space, trees, energy and water. You help preserve the environment now and for future generations.

Participation in The Colony's Recycling Program is simple. Each residence will be given a 95-gallon wheeled recycling cart with an attached lid. Recyclables are to be placed in the recycling cart as indicated by the information in this guide.

Then, prior to 7:00 a.m. the recycling cart should be wheeled to your place of pick-up on the same day as your trash.
