The State of Montana Recycling Program provides state agencies with access to comprehensive recycling of common items and materials. The program utilizes multi-compartment bins that are optimally placed in buildings in and around the Capitol Complex. GSD has contracted with Helena Recycling to provide bi-weekly recycling pick-ups for office paper, cardboard, aluminum, tin, glass, wood pallets, and plastics. At this time only plastic types 1 and 2 are being accepted. Please refer to the current list of accepted recyclables. Helena Recycling will supply GSD with regular information on volumes of recyclables being picked up in order to target activities and increase diversion levels. To see the current program data check out our recycling metrics dataset on Tableau.
