The city has coordinated with DeKalb Sanitation to host two recycle bin trade-in events here in Dunwoody on October 14 and on October 22. DeKalb County Sanitation Division is requiring residents to switch to a new standard 35-gallon recycle roll cart (or an upgraded 65-gallon recycle roll cart) to replace the existing 18-gallon bins and 40-gallon bags as part of the residential single-stream recycling program.
Existing subscribers with 18-gallon bins must trade them in by April 30, 2018, for a complimentary 35-gallon roll cart or, for a $15 fee, subscribers can choose a 65-gallon roll cart. Existing subscribers must trade in/return the 18-gallon recycling bin prior to obtaining the complimentary 35-gallon roll cart or the 65-gallon roll cart.
The City of Dunwoody has coordinated with DeKalb Sanitation to offer two bin trade-in events in Dunwoody.
1. Saturday October 14, from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. at Brook Run Park (4770 North Peachtree Road, parking lot adjacent to the skate park)
2. Sunday October 22, from 1:00 p.m. until 4:00 p.m. at Dunwoody City Hall (41 Perimeter Center East, parking lot)
To register for a Dunwoody bin trade-in event please visit the Parks Registration Portal ( https://secure.rec1.com/GA/dunwoody-ga/catalog ). Select the 'DeKalb Sanitation Recycle Bin Trade-in' event tab and then select the event you would like to attend to make your trade-in. You will need to create an account with the Parks Registration Portal. After “Checkout” is complete please View/Print the residential curbside single-stream recycling subscription form and bring that along with cash or check (if you choose to upgrade to the 65-gallon roll cart it will cost $15) to your selected event and DeKalb County Sanitation will handle the swap.
Participants will need to bring in a completed residential curbside single-stream recycling subscription form. The completed form must be presented along with an existing 18-gallon recycling bin for trade-in. Following the bin trade-ins, subscribers can take home a new roll cart or coordinate a roll cart home delivery with the Sanitation Department (delivery estimated at 10 business days.) Only cash or checks will be accepted at the event for payment of the $15 fee for the 65-gallon roll cart upgrade.
Not able to make the two bin trade-in events in Dunwoody? Not to worry, subscribers can also trade-in existing 18-gallon bins in person at the Sanitation Division’s administrative office, 3720 Leroy Scott Drive, Decatur GA 30032.

I have asked this question of Dekalb County, but I have not gotten a response. My bin disappeared from my driveway a couple of years ago. I already had the blue bags, so I have been using them instead. What do I need to do to get my new can as I don't have one to turn in?
Home School, everything I read said you need to turn in the blue bin, therefore, I suggest you contact Ms. Pauline Andrea of DeKalb Sanitation at 404-294-2092 to ask your question. Sorry, your circumstance was not listed in the DeKalb FAQ's or covered in other documentation. John
Thank you for the number. I will let you know what I find out in case someone else has the same issue.
I just talked to Dekalb County about my stolen bin situation, and they said to go ahead and fill out a form, and put on it that the bin was stolen, and they will not require me to pay for it. I will take the form to the recycling exchange event at Brook Run. In case anyone needs it, the form is:https://www.dekalbcountyga.gov/sites/default/files/Residential%20Recycling%20Subscription%20Form%20and%20Prepaid%20Fee%20Payment%20Options_0.pdf
