It's straightforward of what goes where and what can be recycled. There's even pictures and descriptions, hint hint. They do empty frequently, so if the container is full come back another day. Need the Carboard Overflow option again.

This recycling facility is a great option for Broomfield residents. There is all the usual options but I especially appreciate the container for recycling shoes, which I haven't seen elsewhere. Others complain about crowding here, but I haven't experienced that. Time your visit right and there shouldn't be a problem.
