Recycling Dumpster Lids
Color-coded recycling dumpster lids in blue, black, and yellow HDPE — for single-stream and source-separated commercial recycling. Slotted options for paper, glass, and mixed recyclables. Fits Wastequip, JV Cram-a-lot, and more..
What this page covers
Recycling dumpster lids do two jobs that standard waste lids don't: visual identification (color signals which stream goes into which container) and (sometimes) intake restriction (slotted lids that only accept the right material — paper-slot, can-slot, glass-hole). Getting both right is the difference between a recycling program that works and one that ends up landfill-bound from contamination.
How to choose
Choose by color first black or yellow (matching your jurisdiction's recycling code) and by container size (PRT offers recycling lids for all 8 yard containers, 36x58 or 74x58).
Single-stream recycling — where everything goes in one container — usually doesn't need slotted lids. Source-separated programs (separate bins for paper, glass, plastic) benefit from slot restrictions to reduce contamination.
Recycling lid options
- Black recycling lidsStandard for paper and mixed recycling in most US jurisdictions.
- Slotted recycling lidsPaper or cardboard slot limits intake to the right material.
Frequently asked questions
What color recycling lid do I need?
Check your local recycling program for the exact color code.
Are recycling lids slotted to prevent contamination?
Slotted lids are available — paper slot, can hole, glass-bottle hole — but most operators use plain lids for single-stream programs. Slots are typically for source-separated programs (commercial buildings with multiple bins).
Do recycling lids fit standard waste dumpsters?
Yes. PRT recycling lids use the same S-series and D-series profiles as standard waste lids. You can convert a waste container to recycling just by swapping the lid color.
