Recycling Drop Off
If you are a user of a recycling drop off center, it’s important that you do your part to keep the recyclables clean, and well sorted for the next step of the recycling process. When there is too much contamination in a drop off bin, that load can be considered trash, and end up in the landfill. Here are some important reminders:
1. Always remember to break down boxes. Breaking down boxes will ensure that they are empty and make more room in the bins.
2. Never place plastic wrap/bags in recycling. You can bring plastic shopping bags to most retail stores just look for the recycling bins in front of the store.
3. Keep Materials loose. This means to never put materials inside materials, or bag/box materials.
4. Keep materials clean. Do a nice rinse to any pasta sauce jars, or anything that could leave food residue on any other materials.
5. When in doubt, throw it out or call our office!
Use the waste wizard https://www.clinton-county.org/679/Waste-Wizard to find out where you can bring your materials. If you have any questions, feel free to email recycle@clinton-county.org or call the office at 989-224-5186.
