City One Sha Tin collects an average of about 30 kg of recyclables per household per month, the highest recovery rate among housing estates in Sha Tin District.

The refuse room on each floor is provided with a stacked waste separation bin with 3 compartments to collect waste paper, metals and plastics.

Apart from on-going collections of waste paper, metals and plastics, regular collections of old clothes, used electrical appliances, and books are organised.

Dr. Sarah Liao, the former Secretary for the Environment, Transport and Works, visited City One Sha Tin on 22 January 2006 to learn about the concerted waste separation efforts.
