Business Recycling

In accordance with state law and municipal ordinance, all business must recycle certain items if they are generated at that business. Trash haulers will provide recycling carts or dumpsters for these items. Items acceptable in your recycling containers are listed here.  

If the business is located out of the Sanitation District, make sure your trash hauler is registered with the City.  Registered Trash Haulers are listed here.  

Middletown also has a "Bring Your Own Bag" ordinance which bans plastic check out bags for all businesses, including restaurants.   In an effort to protect our environment and reduce waste, businesses are encouraged not to hand out bags for  one or two items.  If a customer does not have their own bag, and needs a bag, businesses are required to charge ten cents for the bag.
