Beginning July 20, 2015, the City of Santa Fe Environmental
Services Division has expanded the materials collected in our curbside
recycling program.
Additional materials to be accepted will be:
Phone Books
Paperboard/Chipboard
(e.g., cereal boxes, egg cartons, beverage packaging material)
Paperback and
Hardcover Books
Plastics (#3 -
#7), including bottles, jars, yogurt/margarine tubs, deli/salad clamshells (non
acceptable plastics include styrofoam and plastic bags)
Milk Cartons
and Drink Boxes.
The additional materials can be added to
your mixed recycling container, and glass must be in the separate in the second
container.
Santa Fe Residents can pick up recycling
containers Monday through Friday at 1142 Siler Road, Building A.
Recycling bins are often made available at certain community events like
Santa Fe Bandstand and others.
Mayor Javier M. Gonzales said, “As we
continue to lead Santa Fe toward greater sustainability, we’ve got to continually
push the envelope a little further when it comes to reducing our impact. Even
as we explore new and exciting technologies in sustainability – some of the
basics never change, and recycling is one of those basics. One of our biggest
impacts can come by reusing materials, reducing what we throw away and
recycling what we can.”

Environmental Services Division at 505.955.2200 or 505.955-2209.
