Thank you Leadership Big Bend Class for visiting the Hal Flanders Recycling Center yesterday morning.

It is a long-standing tradition for Leadership Big Bend classes to visit our facility to learn about its history and daily operations. We appreciate the opportunity to discuss our regional needs and explore how you, as community leaders, can support local recycling efforts.

We hope the visit provided valuable insight into our resources as you continue to develop your leadership skills and understanding of the region.

Please remember that our recycling is source-separated. If you are unsure which container to use for a specific item, please consult with a technician before disposal.

Please be aware that contaminated loads cannot be recycled and will be redirected to the landfill.😞😞😔😔😫
