"LET'S RECYCLE"
EMPTY.
CLEAN.
SORTED.
LET'S RECYCLE RIGHT!
Your recycling bin does not have to be blue with a recycle symbol on it! Use whatever you have available. An old laundry basket? Cardboard boxes labeled with crayons? Stackable milk crates? Get creative before going out and spending money. Add bins as you need them, or put your recyclables all in one large interim container and then separate prior to recycling with us. Follow the guidelines carefully and watch your trash and disposal bill decrease. You got this!
Aluminum cans are infinitely recyclable with nearly 75% of all aluminum ever produced still in use today. In as few as 60 days, the aluminum can that contains your favorite beverage may have been manufactured, filled, sold, recycled, and remanufactured.
All the newspaper and 50%+ of the cardboard recycled with us, stays local! It's made into cellulose insulation, hydro seed mulch and stable bedding at Thermo-Kool of Alaska, right here in the Mat-Su Valley. If you are looking to be more environmentally responsible, to save money on your heating bills, and support our local economy, click on the newspaper graphic to find out more.
Americans buy 29 billion water bottles a year. For every six bottles people buy, only one is recycled. That leads to a big problem given the fact that water bottles do not biodegrade, but rather photodegrade. This means that it takes at least up to 1,000 years for every single bottle to decompose, leaking pollutants into our soil and water along the way.
