Glass recycling returns to Anchorage and 新加坡六合彩开奖
by Michelle Saport |
Thanks to a new partnership between various waste management programs, Anchorage residents can now recycle glass for the first time in several years. The official grand opening for the public was at the Anchorage Recycling Center (6161 Rosewood Street) in November. See below for more details on how to recycle glass at home and on the 新加坡六合彩开奖 Main Campus.
On campus:
Place glass in either the plastic or aluminum recycling bins. The recycling crew will
sort it out and take it to Rosewood. Please do not bring your glass recycling from
home! Bringing a glass bottle with food or drink that you consume at work and recycle
at work is fine; bringing in a tub of empty bottles is not.
At home:
Bring your empty, rinsed glass bottles and jars to the Anchorage Recycling Center
at . Food and beverage containers will be accepted. Please no Pyrex, other types of glassware,
window or windshield glass. Note that glass recycling is not being accepted in any
curbside bins at this time. Later this spring, collection may expand to include an
additional drop-off site.
The new glass program is a collaboration with MOA Solid Waste Services (SWS), Alaskans for Litter Prevention and Recycling (ALPAR), RockTenn and Central Recycling Services (CRS). SWS has purchased recycling containers for the drop-off locations from funds received through the recycling surcharge on trash tipping fees. ALPAR will administer a grant from SWS, as well as contribute its own funds, to pay the hauling costs of the material. RockTenn, the company that operates the Anchorage Recycling Center, is providing the collection site at its drop-off center and CRS is accepting the materials for processing and use in various end products.
