The commercial recycling regulations require all businesses in Philadelphia that utilize a private trash hauler to do the following:

• Prepare and submit a recycling plan
  (which can be download from this site).
• Distribute the plan to all employees and/or tenants
• Publicly post the plan
• Separate recyclables up-front (before putting in trash)
• Provide recycling containers
• Create an education program to communicate expectations, changes, impacts, etc.
• Use a hauler or recycling company that is licensed by the City of Philadelphia
• Set trash & recyclables out at the proper time to ensure proper sanitation
• File an exemption request if your hauler intends to recover recyclables from mixed trash

These are materials the City has designated for recycling. Companies may gradually begin recycling other materials each year.
