The January article on recycling definitely brought out some new recyclers in our community. Cathy Davis, in charge of recycling for the city, says the increase has been positive.
Here are some reminders from her about recycling:
- Call 367-4407 if you have any questions or would like to begin recycling.
- Plastics with the number 1 or 2 on the bottom may be recycled. It is helpful but not mandatory if they are rinsed prior to sending to the recycle center.
- Fast food containers are not accepted (including cardboard pizza boxes or any styrofoam containers).
- Please do not send tissue, paper plates, paper towels, or napkins. Paper that has been shredded is the only paper accepted at this time.
- Please sort your recycle items into cardboard, plastics, paper, and newspaper.
Thanks for recycling.
