Toppers Recyclers’ Post

Did you know your trash and recycling cans need to have their lids fully closed for the city to ensure they get emptied? 🙉 While sometimes cans with slightly open lids still get serviced, there are instances where overflowing cans get skipped entirely. The reason is simple: during pick-up, if the lid isn’t shut, bags and trash can easily fly out, causing a big mess. To avoid this, make sure your cans aren’t overflowing and the lids are securely closed when you place them at the curb. Help keep the streets clean and ensure your trash gets collected! 💯 #canmonkey #cantocurb #closedlids

Stringed Lights SHOULD NOT Be Disposed of In Your Recycling Bin! Do you have an abundance of holiday lights that are burned out and unusable? If so, you can SIMPLY PUT THEM IN YOUR REGULAR TRASH. Stringed lights in a recycling bin will cause a problem at the recycling facility and are potentially hazardous to those working in the facility as they become wrapped around equipment and need to be manually cut off. Unusable lights and any other garbage placed in your regular trash will be used as fuel to create electricity when it is brought to the York County Resource Recover Center by your hauler. All of York County’s municipal curbside trash is combusted and turned into alternative power. Your old holiday lights used to create electricity, who knew? Waste-to-Energy: working for York County.

Big news: I was accepted into the Sanitation Foundation NYC Trash Academy! ♼ 🚮 Circularity in the waste stream and city street/sidewalk management are two big interests of mine, as is reducing litter and rats, so really looking forward to deepening my understanding in these areas and how I can make improvements in my community. Also super stoked to learn more about these garbage trucks of the future 😍 and reducing parking to make our streets more livable (and less smelly). #circularity #sustainability
