City of Laingsburg issued the following announcement on Oct. 1.
Happy October!
The next area-wide recycling drive will be held on Saturday, October 9, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the usual location in downtown Laingsburg on Roosevelt Row.
Collections are always held the second Saturday of the month.
Materials accepted every month at GLR recycling drives include:
-newspaper and phone books;
-tin and aluminum;
-scrap metal;
-corrugated cardboard (include brown paper bags here);
-boxboard (but not refrigerated or juice boxes);
-mixed office paper (no adhesives), junk mail,
-books and magazines;
-plastics #1-2 (please separate) but no clamshells (takeout, berries and salad containers).
-household batteries continue to be accepted as well; please separate into regular, rechargeable and lithium
-empty inkjets from Canon, Brother and HP
Unfortunately, we cannot accept glass right now, but hope that will change once our facility has opened. The GLR cannot accept plastic grocery bags or polystyrene/Styrofoam (the latter is accepted at the St. Johns Lions’ site, Meridian Twp. and East Lansing).
As always, recyclers from any community are welcome. A $2-$3 donation to help cover our costs is requested but not mandatory.
