RECYCLING:
In these special collection zones, there will also be an additional recycling collection on Monday, April 22 beginning at midnight. All recycling materials must be placed at curbside on the evening of Sunday, April 21 for collection on Monday, April 22 from 12:00 midnight to 8:00 am. For additional recycling collection in limited areas, please refer to the map below or contact the CB14 office for details.
BULK:
The Department of Sanitation requires appointments for removal of refrigerators, water coolers, freezers, and air conditioners. Call 311 or visit www.nyc.gov/sanitation to make these collection appointments. In order to ensure pick-up before the holiday, it is suggested that residents schedule pick-ups for appliances by Friday, April 12. It is important to prepare early and utilize sanitation services the week before the holiday for bulk items to avoid an excessive volume of debris that could impede planned schedules. All mattresses placed out for collection must be sealed in plastic. Failure to do so will result in a summons.
