The Recycling trailer is still available and located in its original location on Pinson City Hall property. Often asked is, “What items are acceptable for the recycling trailer?” An article taken from the Turkey Creek Facebook page answers this question.
Confusion about Recycling Trailer
By Charles Yeager TCNP
Thank you Pinson, for making the Recycling Trailer such a huge success! Since May of this year, volunteer workers have taken a full trailer to be recycled every week. This unexpected outpouring of support has been wonderful. However, there has been some confusion about what items and materials are accepted. On each receptacle, guidelines for acceptable materials have been posted. Please, take a moment and review those so that we can successfully recycle the items brought to the trailer. When unsorted or unacceptable items are deposited, they will not be recycled and they make the task of delivery more difficult. Here are some quick guidelines to go by:
Accepted Paper: Cardboard and Office paper ONLY (no food contaminated items or wet paper)
Accepted Plastic: Plastic bottles and Jugs
Aluminum Cans only; no steel cans (can food or dog food cans)
DO NOT BRING: Plastic Bags, Aluminum Foil/pans, or Styrofoam
We realize that the trailer fills up quickly, but please, do not leave items outside of the trailer. Also, as a space saving effort, please, crush boxes, cans, and plastic containers.
Every week, volunteers happily take time out of their week to deliver your recycling items. Please support their efforts by using the trailer responsibly and properly. Your support will go a long way towards making the difficult task of delivering your materials much easier. If you have any questions about accepted materials, or would like to help with this effort, please, send an email to cyeager@bsc.edu
