Leesburg residents will no longer have to separate recyclables from garbage

Leesburg residents will no longer have to separate recyclables from garbage as of Jan. 1.

All waste collected at the curb will be transported to a waste-to-energy plant that provides “an economic renewable source of energy by safely incinerating waste to produce electricity,” according to an announcement from the city.

All trash cans will be picked up at the same time by the same truck. There will no longer be two separate trucks. Residents can use their recycling can as a second trash can. If you have any questions, contact the Leesburg Solid Waste Division at (352) 728-9878.
