Recyclables, which should be placed in a designated red recycling bin, are picked up curbside on regular trash collection days.

Bins are available for $8 FREE at the Utility Billing Office in Room 113 of Municipal Building.

Curbside Recycling

These items can be recycled through Fairfield’s curbside program:

Glass - All glass food and drink containers or jars are accepted (colored or clear). Please discard caps and rinse out. No need to remove paper labels. Not presently accepted: Broken glass of any type, window glass, mirrors, light bulbs, drinking glasses/mugs or oven/cooking glassware (Pyrex).

Metal cans - Aluminum and bi-metal beverage cans, steel soup and food cans, and empty aerosol cans are accepted. Please rinse, drain and crush cans (when possible), and remove plastic aerosol caps. Labels do not need to be removed. Not presently accepted: Paint cans, coat hangers, steel scrap, and pots or pans.

Paper Products - Place newspapers, magazines, junk mail, mixed office paper, paper grocery bags, cereal boxes, catalogs and telephone books in a brown paper grocery sack (no plastic bags, please), then place inside bin, or — in case of rain— place under the bin. Boxes should be flattened and corrugated cardboard should be cut to a size no larger than three feet by three feet. Not presently accepted: Pizza boxes or cardboard products contaminated with grease or food residue.

Plastics - Plastic milk containers, soft drink bottles, detergent bottles and shampoo bottles are accepted, providing they display the recycling logo with the number 1 or 2. Please remove all caps and lids, rinse out and crush the container. Labels do not need to be removed. Not presently accepted: Wide-mouth containers such as margarine bowls or whipped topping containers, oil jugs, film or plastic bags.
