Greater Greenville Sanitation has announced that they will stop picking up recycling on March 30, 2023. The cost for picking up and disposing of recycling is more than four times the cost of the same service for garbage, so it has become too expensive to continue.
Residential and business fees for garbage collection will not change, however. Rather, the monies saved will be applied to automated equipment for garbage collection. Customers may keep their recycling carts to use for regular garbage, or if preferred, contact Greater Greenville Sanitation to pick them up.
If you prefer to continue recycling, you can drop off your items at these locations.
