We're provided with recycle bins that we put out each week along with the trash, but I don't think its *required*. If you throw paper/plastic/glass/etc. in the trash can instead of the recycle bin, they'll take it as trash.

I do know that pretty much everyone uses their recycle bins in our neighborhood and recycles, but I don't think its required by law. At least there is no law that I'm aware of that REQUIRES you to recycle.
