After converting all residents' recycling<\/strong> method with city-provided 95-gallon carts, South Amboy<\/strong> issued a sort of reminder<\/a> as to what can be recycled and what cannot, with a picture of how the bin should be placed for pickup. Although, I've only seen they used the special pickup robotic truck (operated by only a single human staff) a couple of times, while the other times were actually picked up the conventional way (one driver & two garbage men), I wonder if they couldn't afford renting the special truck all the time or something:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we prepare for the upcoming recycling pickup on Friday, September 12th<\/strong>, we encourage you to place your recycling cart out starting after 6pm this evening to ensure your recycling is out and ready to be serviced. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please note the following important guidelines:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Only<\/strong> the new blue 95-gallon recycling carts<\/strong> will be serviced. Old recycling containers will not be accepted.<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. All recyclable materials, including cardboard, must be placed inside the new cart.<\/strong> Items left outside the cart or on top of the cart will not be collected.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Place the cart at the curb with the silver pick up bar facing the street<\/strong> and the wheels toward your home<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Leave at least 4 feet of clearance on both sides of the cart.
