Residential Plastics

Recycling household waste

Household plastics should be rinsed and taken to one of our drop-off points. We accept any plastic milk containers, detergent bottles, old toys, anything made of plastic that can be cleaned. No paint containers. We are working towards setting up a downtown location, and will be announcing that soon. Plastics can also be dropped off just north of town at Reclaim Northwest, LLC., 199 H Street Road. When you recycle with us, you are making a difference in more ways than just keeping our environment clean.

Why Recycle ?

What’s the matter with a bonfire fueled by plastic wastes, or with plowing old mulch or dairy film into a field or piling it out-of-the-way? The primary problems are that open burning adds pollutants to the air that pose risks to human health, and dumping can compromise water quality and future farm operations, not to mention that random piles of used, partly-degraded plastics are unsightly. Recycling improves environment quality.
