Curbside Recycling

Curbside recycling is available to ALL residents of Clark County. In some cities and urban growth areas, curbside recycling is mandatory. In all areas, recycling is picked up on the same day as garbage (self-haul garbage customers are given a recyclingschedule). Residents are assigned a pick-up day when they sign up for garbage service.
