Farmersville has an award winning drop-off and curbside recycling program. It is a program that is more comprehensive and better organized than programs found in communities much larger than Farmersville! Since the city adopted the Curbside Single Stream Recycling Program, recycling in Farmersville has increased from 18.45 pounds per household to over 20 pounds per household. The blue 95 gallon recycling carts allow homeowners to recycle without sorting. Curbside recycling date is every other Wednesday.
The Drop-off Recycling Center is located at the City Maintenance lot on South Johnson Street. It is open every Saturday from 8 AM to 11 AM. Here is a list of the many items we can accept for recycling and remember no amount is too small--each item is important.
Newspapers - no wet ones or yellowed with sun or age, flat in boxes or brown, grocery bags
White bond paper, Computer paper
#1 and #2 plastic bottles or jugs only - rinsed clean, lids removed and crushed flat
Aluminum cans - rinsed and crushed
Steel / tin cans - labels removed, rinsed clean, both ends removed and crushed flat
Corrugated cardboard - opened up and flattened. This does not include paper board such as cereal boxes, detergent boxes, cold drink boxes, etc
Keep all items separated, it makes it much easier when you come in to recycle on Saturday morning 8 AM to 11 AM. All citizens living in and near Farmersville are invited to participate in this very important environmental activity.
