Please flatten all boxes and close the unit lids... Full boxes 'appear' to fill units early. These photos are from the Sandusky Street location Tues. Lids are left open, debris blows around and travels the neighborhood. Leaving items on the ground is illegal dumping and will not be recycled. You are making the effort to recycle - please do it right for all of us.

Whew - it's a HOT one!!!
Please work together this week by breaking down all your boxes.
As we prepare to celebrate a country unified - keep Recycling Right in mind. Due to the holiday, services may be delayed or interrupted so flattening boxes is essential to a successful holiday weekend.

*Have a safe holiday weekend*

We are just a few short weeks away from another Holiday weekend where we may see delays in service.
Let's celebrate 250yrs of Independence!!
With independence comes responsibility.... Recycling Right is one easy way to demonstrate responsibility. Our forefathers didn't have this success alone - they worked together and we need your community help to keep this program available locally.

Attached are some photos from the most abused site.

Things to remember when recycling:
* Recycling Units around the community are for Residential (Household) Recycling only - No companies/businesses please.
* FLATTEN & EMPTY all boxes - this keeps the units usable.
* Close the lids and doors on the units- help keep our community clean and litter free - Wind can be a challenge
*All 18+ Site Locations & Service Map Schedule available on www.HancockEnvironment.com
**FYI - Red Tape on unit lid means it's already FULL-please move down (tape will secure lid to prevent litter until broken when emptied by Rumpke)
