Recycling Bin

Waveland is excited to announce improvements to trash and recycling services offered to citizens. Waste Management has placed a community recycling bin in the parking lot of Waveland City Hall. 

​The recycling bin is funded by the Hancock County Solid Waste Authority.   The bin provides an opportunity for Waveland residents not to go outside the city limit to dispose of their recyclable goods.  The recycling bin will be emptied every Monday.
 
What can you put in the recycling bin?

• Plastics 1 - 7
• Aluminum, steel and tin cans
• Milk and juice cartons
• Mixed paper (e.g. magazines, newspaper, office paper, etc.)
• Corrugated cardboard and boxboard (e.g. flattened boxes )
• Glass jars and bottles
