Increased Recycling in Honor of the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day

April 12th, 2010 3:43 PM

Increased Recycling in Honor of the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day - The Solid Waste Management Division would like to announce the celebration of the 40th Anniversary of Earth Day by giving back to residents of St. Johns County by going even greener and accepting more items to be recycled in St. Johns County. Both of the residential franchised haulers, Advanced Disposal and Seaboard Waste Systems, have teamed with St. Johns County to collect even more recyclable items curbside. They will be delivering an additional 14-gallon recycling bin to all customers to allow for the expected increase in recycling. The items that will now be accepted include: plastic bottles and jugs labeled #1 through #7; empty pill bottles; water bottles; green, brown and clear glass bottles; metal and aluminum cans; cereal boxes (with the inserts discarded); newspapers and inserts; junk mail; magazines; catalogs; telephone books; brown paper bags; corrugated cardboard (cut into 2x3 sheets); office and copy paper; shredded paper in a closed paper bag; file folders; file or packing boxes; and brown or gray fiber packages. Items that will not be collected are plastic bags, milk cartons, juice boxes, motor oil containers, pool chemical bottles, pesticide or fertilizer bottles, and loose shredded paper.
