Trash/Recycling Pickup Tomorrow

Posted on June 18, 2019 by Scott

This Wednesday is a “Red Wednesday”, which means trash and recycling pickup. Ideally, rolling recycling containers are stored and deployed in the back alleys along with trash cans. Please make sure you pick up containers after pickup tomorrow night.

If you have not done so already, don’t forget to sign up for your Recycling Perks.

In recycling news, Colgate-Palmolive corporation recently announced its creation of the first-ever recyclable toothpaste tube. The tube has been five years in the making and was just recognized by the Association of Plastic Recyclers. It will hit store shelves by 2020 under the Tom’s of Maine brand, which Colgate-Palmolive owns, and eventually the company plans to convert all of its tubes to the recyclable kind. Hopefully this will reduce the 20 billion tubes that go to landfill every year.
