Recycling Information
Recycling is an important initiative in Palm Beach County School District. Proper recycling practices preserve natural resources, decrease waste hauling costs, and contribute to the State of Florida's 75% recycling goal. Below is a list of programs that schools and ancillary facilities are encouraged to participate in to support the District-wide environmental stewardship initiative.
To report a missed pickup of cardboard recycling or commingled (plastic/aluminum/glass) recycling, contact the Utilities Section at 561-687-7119 or email utilities@palmbeachschools.org.
