  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Waste Find Local Recycling Depots
    Our ability to recycle certain things ebbs and flows based upon many factors. Luckily there are places that accept uncommon things to recycle or dispose of in a less harmful way. What did you find when looking for places to recycle items that can't be recycled in your curbside bin?

    We've built up quite a stockpile of Styrofoam in our garage, so I was beyond pleased to discover a facility has opened in Tigard since the last time I looked for a place to recycle it.  I wish manufactures would switch to something better
