    Convenient Recycling
    There are 24 counties in Michigan where all residents have "convenient access" to recycling. In order to determine which counties have convenient access to recycling, the following criteria were established:

    1. The county must provide a collection program to each resident through ordinance, public/private partnerships, private-hauler contracting, or a publicly managed program.
    2. Each community with 10,000 or more people must provide each resident access to curbside recycling.
    3. In a community without curbside recycling, there must be at least one drop-off location per 10,000 people.

    The 21 counties in Michigan where all residents have convenient access to recycling are identified with an asterisk (*) in the list below.
