No Garbage No Juice Boxes/Bags Many of you may already use Allied Waste and our Single Sort program, but we thought we should provide a summary for those who may use another company. Single Sort Recycling with Allied Waste allows you to throw all recyclable materials into the same container — without any sorting or separating of the materials. It's the easiest, cleanest way to recycle! Participation and the amount of recycling collected increase significantly with Single Sort. Our customer's recycling volumes increase anywhere from 25% to 40% after beginning with Single Sort! No Sorting! No Separating! No Kidding! Here are some of the benefits Maple Grove residents will see with Single Sort Recycling • Allied Waste provides a new 68- gallon recycling cart to every resident • The Single Sort cart has wheels so it's easy to roll —no more dragging the bins to the curb • The cart is self- contained so it doesn't leak in your garage or driveway • The cart has a lid that keeps out the bees and the weather...and keeps the recycling from blowing around the neighborhood on windy days • The cart lid has a distinctive gray color to set it apart from the trash cart • The lid has a full - color, in -mold label that gives clear directions on what is recyclable and what is not recyclable (the label is pictured above, right) • The Single Sort program is an every other week service, which limits the wear and tear on your streets. This also keeps traffic to a minimum in a city with so many young children
