In another two weeks, every household in St. Joseph County should have a new recycling bin.

About 90% of all homeowners already have the new 96-gallon wheeled tote.

The rest should be distributed in the next two weeks.

While pick-up days remain the same, there is a new deadline for getting items to the curb.

"We're picking up on the same day as the previous schedule but the time of day has certainly changed, in order to be serviced they need to be out by 6 a.m. on the day of service," explains Ken Himes of Borden Waste Away.

The new contractor will continue to pick up the old 18-gallon bins through Wednesday of this week.

After that all customers who have the new wheeled totes, will be required to use them.

If you do not have your wheeled tote by Wednesday, January 14, Borden will continue to pick up your smaller bins.
