# # # Make a Difference in Your Community!

Have you ever wanted to have a say in the future of your community? Now is your chance.

The **Norway-Paris Solid Waste (NPSW)** Board is currently accepting applications from residents of both Norway and Paris to fill board vacancies. Serving on a board or committee is one of the most effective ways to make a meaningful impact in your community while requiring only a minimal time commitment.

Your voice, ideas, and perspective can help guide important decisions that affect local services, finances, recycling programs, environmental initiatives, and the future of the communities we call home.

Not interested in solid waste? That's okay! We encourage you to check with your local town office to learn about other boards and committees that may have openings. Every community benefits from residents who are willing to get involved.

**Interested in serving on the NPSW Board?**
stop by your local town office to obtain a copy of the application

Completed applications must be submitted to either:

* **The Town of Norway Town Office**, or
* **The Town of Paris Town Office**

A small commitment of your time can have a lasting impact on your community.

**Step up. Get involved. Be part of the solution. Your community needs you.** ♻️🇺🇸

NOTICE

When the upper gate at Norway-Paris Solid Waste is closed, the facility is closed.

We do not make the decision to close the facility lightly. Closures occur only when conditions create a safety concern for our customers, employees, contractors, or the general public. Public safety is, and always will be, our highest priority.

While we understand that closures can be inconvenient, these decisions are made out of necessity, not preference. We ask for the public's cooperation and respect when facility staff determine that conditions are unsafe for operations.

Abusive, confrontational, or disrespectful behavior toward staff will not be tolerated. Our employees are carrying out their responsibility to protect the safety of everyone on site.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to reopen the facility as soon as conditions safely allow.

NOTED** WE ARE BACK OPEN

We have to close the gates temporarily due to somebody dumping mini propane tanks into the hopper.

Does any body know a place that could reuse some plant pots? We have 30-50 right now but typically take in several more during the year. I would like to avoid throwing good ones in the hopper?

♻️ Waste Wednesday Tip: Focus on #2 Plastics ♻️

Did you know that #2 plastics are some of the MOST valuable and commonly recycled materials we receive?

#2 plastics, also known as HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene), are used every day in items like:

✅ Milk jugs
✅ Laundry detergent bottles
✅ Shampoo bottles
✅ Buckets & storage containers
✅ Some cleaning product containers

When these items are recycled properly, they can be turned into NEW products such as piping, recycling bins, outdoor furniture, playground equipment, and more — instead of taking up space in the hopper.

Why is recycling #2 plastics so important?

🔹 Helps reduce landfill waste
🔹 Conserves natural resources
🔹 Saves energy during manufacturing
🔹 Creates revenue that helps offset facility costs
🔹 Keeps recyclable materials out of expensive disposal streams

At Norway Paris Solid Waste, increasing recycling starts with EVERYONE making small changes at home. Before throwing an item away, take a second look for the ♻️ #2 symbol.

✔️ Empty and rinse containers
✔️ Keep items loose — no bagged recyclables
✔️ Place only accepted plastics in recycling areas

Small choices make a BIG impact. Together, we make a difference! ♻️

♻️ **Waste Wednesday: Glass Recycling Done Right!** ♻️

Did you know? Glass is 100% recyclable and can be reused over and over again — but only if it’s clean!

Before bringing your glass to the facility:

✅ Empty all liquids
✅ Give it a quick rinse
✅ Remove lids and caps
✅ Recycle bottles & jars only

🚫 NO ceramics
🚫 NO Pyrex
🚫 NO mirrors
🚫 NO window glass
🚫 NO drinking glasses
🚫 NO light bulbs

A dirty glass load can contaminate the entire container and create extra costs for everyone.

Remember: **Empty. Rinse. Remove lids. Recycle.**

Help us keep recycling clean, efficient, and valuable for our community!
