There are no changes in the schedule of free countywide recycling drop-offs for January sponsored by Monroe County Recycling and Green Community Program and Republic Services.

The recycling trailer will appear first at the Kroger store off M-50 in Dundee Monday and Tuesday at the Bedford Township Hall, 8100 Jackman Rd., Temperance. It will be stationed at the Bedford hall every Tuesday during the month, said Dan Rock, Recycling and Green Community Program coordinator for the county. The trailer will visit the Monroe Township Hall at 4925 E. Dunbar Rd. every Wednesday. It also will visit the Dundee Kroger Jan. 18 and St. Joseph Catholic Grade School in Erie Jan. 12.

Visitors are reminded to bring only materials accepted for recycling and that plastic bags should not be dropped into the bins. Recyclables can be dropped loosely inside and plastic bags can be dropped off at grocery store entrances, Rock said.

Those materials accepted for recycling include aluminum, steel and tin cans; clear and colored glass; plastics labeled Nos. 1-5 or 7; newspapers, slicks, office paper and magazines; junk mail; soft-cover books; paperboard, and milk and juice cartons. Lids and labels can be included.

Recyclables should be clean and dry and dropped in loose. Greasy pizza boxes, soiled paper, diapers and food are not accepted, he said.

To recycle other materials, such as batteries, CFL bulbs, computers, laptop computers, televisions and electronics, contact Rock at 734-240-7909 or email Dan_ rock@monroemi.org or visit greenmonroecounty.com.
