FAQ's
What items are accepted for recycling?
The transfer station accepts office paper, junk mail, newspapers,
magazines, phone books, green glass, brown glass, clear glass,
aluminum cans, tin cans, as well as car and truck batteries.
Plastic bottles, either type I, (HDPE) or type II, (PET) are
also collected in the metal container at the front of the transfer
station building.
What do we do with our recyclables?
Residents can bring their recyclables to the transfer station,
but should turn to the right as they go into the entrance, rather
than going to the scale house. The recycling collection area
is in front of the facility's main building.
The exception is that those bringing oil or antifreeze for recycling
should stop first at the scale house.
Those with further questions about the transfer station should
call (770) 528-2500.
