If you’ve been wanting to start sorting your waste for a while, this program is just what you need. The Recicla y Resuelve program is back with its drive-thru format so you can recycle quickly, conveniently, and hassle-free.
The process is simple: you pull up in your car, drop off your materials, and you’re done. The whole process is designed so you don’t have to get out of your car, making it perfect if you’re looking for a practical way to help the environment without spending too much time.
Plus, you’ll not only be helping to keep the city cleaner, but there’s also a reward: by participating, you’ll receive a native plant, and on certain dates, there will be additional surprises.
What can you bring to the drive-thru recycling station?
Here you can dispose of various types of recyclable waste, provided they are clean and properly sorted. Accepted materials include:
- Plastics (bottles, shampoo or detergent containers, caps)
- Cardboard and paper (grease-free and compacted)
- Aluminum and tin cans (crushed)
- Glass (food-grade bottles and jars)
- Electronics (cell phones, cables, computers, printers)
- Clothing and textiles
- Used vegetable cooking oil (in a plastic bottle)
- Clean Styrofoam and polystyrene packaging
- Kitchen items such as pots, pans, or Tupperware
It’s important to bring everything separated to speed up the process and ensure that the materials can be recycled properly.
