The City of Coral Gables is implementing new changes to its residential recycling.

Beginning on June 14, the City will be transitioning to more efficient pickup routes as well as moving from a five-day operation to a four-day operation. The new routes will minimize time spent driving between pickups and will conveniently allow a resident's recycling pickup day to fall on one of their household garbage pickup days.

Moving to a four-day operation will create an 'off-day' and will allow for vehicle maintenance without delaying service, provide time to recover due to unforeseen disruptions such as storms and vehicle breakdowns, and will help reduce our carbon footprint.

Please note: these changes will not affect your household garbage pickup but may result in a change to your recycling pickup day. To find out when your recycling will be picked up, please click here on June 14 once information has been updated to reflect new routes.
