The City of Meridian partners with Republic Services to provide curbside commingle recycling (all material in one cart) service every other week to all single-family households and multifamily buildings with 4 or fewer units. For multifamily buildings with more than 4 units, check with the building owner or property manager for onsite recycling opportunities. Republic Services also provides residents with a recycling drop-off center at the Meridian Transfer Station (2130 W Franklin Rd. Meridian) to use for free.

- Keep carts at least three feet away from other carts, mailboxes, fire hydrants, low-hanging trees or shrubs, parked cars, or utility poles so trucks can easily access the cart.
