♻️ Recycle During the Week! ♻️

Did you know that recycling bins are often busiest on weekends? By visiting your local recycling drop-off site during the week, you'll find more available space and help keep materials loose and properly sorted for recycling.

When bins have room, recyclables are less likely to overflow and more likely to make it through the recycling process successfully.

🚲🌿 shout out to the Delaware County Board of Realtors for holding their annual bike path clean-up in April!

The group collected 15 bags of litter while helping keep our community trails clean and enjoyable for everyone. 👏🗑️ Great work, and thank you for giving back to the community!
