DeKalb to host Stonecrest recycling roll cart event

The DeKalb County Sanitation Division, in partnership with the city of Stonecrest, will host a recycling roll cart exchange event on Saturday, June 16, 9 a.m. – noon, at Stonecrest City Hall, 3120 Stonecrest Blvd., Stonecrest.

During the event, existing recycling subscribers will have the opportunity to complete the mandatory recycling roll cart exchange process by trading in an 18-gallon recycling bin for a complimentary 35-gallon recycling roll cart, or upgrading to a 65-gallon recycling roll cart for a one-time $15 prepaid fee. New recycling subscriptions can also be processed during the event. 

Only 500 roll carts will be available, and requests will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis. Participants unable to obtain a roll cart during the event can submit a completed subscription form on-site. The roll cart requested will be delivered to the service address within 15 business days after the event. All event participants are required to complete a recycling subscription form, which can be obtained by visiting www.dekalbsanitation.com, and will be available at the event.

Roll cart exchange requests can also be submitted on an ongoing basis by mail, online by visiting www.dekalbsanitation.com, in person at the Sanitation Division’s administrative office located at 3720 Leroy Scott Drive, Decatur, Monday through Friday, from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., or by emailing sanitation3720@dekalbcountyga.gov. A recycling subscription form must be completed, and is available online. The exchange process must be completed by Dec. 28, 2018.

DeKalb County Department of Watershed Management team members will also be on-site to provide fats, oils and grease (FOG) educational information.
