The present invention provides a recycling chute that provides multi-level access to a recycling container to throw away bottles and cans from a raised outdoor deck or multi-level deck to the ground-level. The recycling chute includes piping having a first end and a second end and removably attaches to the railings and support beams of a raised deck or multi-level deck using fasteners. The first end includes an inlet port that is configured to receive bottles and cans. The piping further includes additional access points, using Y-couplers at each additional floor of the deck. The piping extends substantially from the inlet port on the uppermost deck to an outlet port at the second end of the piping on the ground-level. The piping may further includes lining that is designed to attenuate the sound of bottles and cans passing through the pipe.

The preferred embodiment of the trash-and-recyclables collection and lowering system includes a paternoster like structure that includes a frame, a vehicle subsystem that includes a plurality of trash and recyclables carrying gondolas, guiderails and a drive system, a pair of chains that is connected to the plurality of gondolas at the bottom mid point of the gondolas, and a control subsystem. The system is powered by at least one motor that includes a motor shaft equipped with a worm gear that rotates a shaft on which a pair of sprockets in the top segment of the structure subsystem is mounted. The structure subsystem faces a wall a multi-story building that includes a plurality of trash and recyclables disposal windows. The gondolas are normally kept immediately under the trash and recyclables disposal windows, and are periodically lowered, and their contents are emptied to the trash or recyclables bin at the bottom of the structure.

An apparatus for cleaning a disposal chute in a building, the chute having a chute wall, includes a crane and cable assembly; a cleaning fluid spraying assembly suspended from the crane and cable assembly for lowering and raising within the chute; a flexible fluid delivery line suspended from the spraying assembly; and a fluid pump assembly connected to the flexible fluid delivery line. The spraying assembly preferably additionally includes a guide cage having resilient and outwardly bowed vertical support ribs interconnected by lateral support hoops extending substantially parallel to the mounting plate. The apparatus preferably additionally includes at least one cage wheel having an axial wheel port and being rotatably mounted on at least one support hoop for rolling against the chute wall as the spraying assembly is raised and lowered within the chute. A method is provided of cleaning a building disposal chute with the above described apparatus including the steps of securing a cleaning fluid spray head from a cable; lowering and raising the spray head from a crane assembly within a disposal chute; and delivering cleaning fluid to the spray head from the spray head lower end through a fluid line extending downwardly within the chute to a fluid pump assembly.
