Spring 2023 Changes to Curbside Recycling

Changes are coming in 2023 to CVWMA’s curbside recycling program.

  • Starting in May, 95-gallon recycling carts on wheels will be delivered to single-family homes in Henrico, Hanover and Goochland participating in the curbside program.
  • Bins and personal containers are being phased out. Beginning July 1, all recyclables must go in the CVWMA recycling cart for collection.
  • In Henrico, some homes will switch from Red Week collection to Blue Week collection upon delivery of new recycling carts.
