Global Recycling provides residential and commercial recycling services in St. Charles Parish, St. John Parish, Jefferson Parish, and Orleans Parish.

We are committed to providing customers with the best curbside recycling services possible.

We use single stream recycling approach, where all recyclables go into one bin. We also provide a 45 gallon cart that has wheels and a lid making it easier to wheel the recyclables to the curb and the lid keeps the recyclables from blowing down the street on windy or rainy days.

No sorting- All the recyclables go into one cart together.

The pickup will be at the curb. Simply roll the cart to the cart on trash day before 6am.
