“As a Eureka Recycling driver, I work hard to make sure everyone receives dependable recycling pick-up, even during snow storms and subzero temperatures. Did you know that you can get up-to-date info about your recycling pickup when you download the Eureka Recycling app on your smartphone? You can also sign up for service alerts on our website at www.eurekarecycling.org. Check it out!”

“Batteries shouldn’t go in your recycling cart. Did you know that if lithium ion batteries (like those found in musical greeting cards) end up in your cart they can cause fires in recycling trucks or recycling centers? Please do your part to keep hazardous materials like lithium batteries out of your recycling cart and help keep me and my co-workers safe!”

“No plastic bags, please! Plastic bags are a big safety issue for recycling facilities, and my co-workers and I spend up to 2 hours a day cutting tangled plastic bags off of our equipment. Plastic bags are not recyclable in your cart, but you can recycle plastic bags at many local grocery and department stores.”

Eureka Recycling is a local non-profit whose mission is to demonstrate that waste is completely preventable. If you want to better understand what happens to your recycling once it leaves the bin, or how recycling can play a role in a zero waste future, come for a tour and a conversation at Eureka. Find out more by visiting us at our website www.eurekarecycling.org.
