New Paper Recycle Dumpster at the Recycle Center

There is a new dumpster at the recyclce center that sits outside of the main recycle center building.  The new dumpster will help us increase revenue at the recycle center.  You can deposit all paper products including non-corrugated cardboard, egg cartons, phone books, and newspapers in the dumpster.  Please throw the paper as far back inside of the dumpster as you can.  Don't forget that corrugated cardboard still goes inside of the Recycle center building.  If you have questions or feedback, feel free to contact Chairman Steve Panozzo.
