Recycling Plastic

February 2026 Update

We are off and running with year three of our NexTrex plastic collection.  With our window opening in January, we are already at 348 pounds!!!!  Since we have been doing this for so long, the number of unacceptable items that show up in our plastic collections have increased.  I’d like to take some time to clarify what types of plastics are appropriate:

If the plastic has either of these, DO NOT BRING IN.

NO plastic containers of any kind – see below

I have some wonderful volunteers that help to weigh, document, and drop off the large collection bags each week. Please help them out by doing your part and bringing the appropriate items. The Outreach team is still trying to find a place to donate this next

bench. If you have any ideas of establishments needing a bench or would be interested in helping out with the plastic collection, please reach out to Tara.
