Blue Box & Recycling

Blue boxes and recycling are picked up every week. Put all your bottles, cans, cartons and jars into one blue box and put all your paper and cardboard into a different blue box.

Hamilton has a two stream recycling system, so you will need at least 2 blue recycling boxes for proper sorting. Learn more about what can be recycled and what to do if you get an Oops! Sticker.

Yellow recycling boxes, called gold boxes, are given to homes that show how they sort their recycling and garbage. Gold boxes are awarded to super recyclers!
