It’s mandatory for citizens to recycle, it’s not mandatory for landlords to provide curbside service. Several of the rural towns in the state don’t even provide curbside trash service and it’s on the individual to contract themselves or go drop off at the town transfer station.

The city contracts with WM for any bldg with six or fewer units but the big apartment complexes are on their own as they operate on a scale that would necessitate a dumpster instead of the 96gal cans that go in front of people’s houses. Dumpsters and cans need different trucks and the city doesn’t contract for any of those.

If you’re a student, does your school recycle? I’d say probably just dump a small bag every day on your way to class.
