Residential schedules depend on location

Farmville says its curbside recycling program is voluntary for residents and businesses. The page lists the first and third Tuesday for Main Street and areas to the east and for the Cumberland County side, while areas west of Main Street are listed for the first and third Thursday.

The town instructs users to place recyclables in a 13-gallon clear or white drawstring bag and separate paper from the remaining accepted material. The live collection map should control an address-level question.

Commercial cardboard follows a separate rule

The page describes corrugated-cardboard recycling as mandatory for business and commercial establishments. It says cardboard should be broken down and stacked or neatly tied, remain free of debris and be out by 6 a.m. on collection day.

Do not infer that every plastic, glass object, battery, motor-oil container or business load belongs in curbside service. Check the current material list and collection map, and use the responsible town route for a missed collection or unusual item.
