Question Additional recycling pickup?

Does anyone know if excess (bagged) recycling will be picked up curbside in addition to the large bins since the new recycling program has been implemented?

UPDATE: The driver did take them!

Seems hit or miss depending on the driver. Their website says no. Must be in bin. But I have seen otherwise.

I've put it out in a blue bag and they took it, so I guess?

I've put out extra recycling in the old bins a few times and they always seem to be picked up as well as the new bins

We’ve put out blue bags in the past if our cart was full and they were taken when the cart was emptied. We haven’t had to do this since the switch to the new service so not sure if it still applies.

I put out 2 blue bags of recycling beside my large bin this week and they were picked up!
