A town meeting will be held tonight to offer information about Recycle Anaheim, the city’s curbside recycling program, which will begin citywide service next month.

Residents have been mailed information on the program, but organizers said the town meeting--featuring a video presentation--would help encourage participation.

The program, administered by Anaheim Disposal Inc., which handles the city’s trash collection, began as a pilot plan last September at 11,000 households throughout the city. Officials say the trial program was able to divert more than 3,000 tons of recyclable refuse from Orange County landfills during the first 10 months, and its success encouraged them to take the program citywide.
