Recycling by County Waste

[Mann, Barbara J. (bjm2r)]

FYI and thanks to Dan for posting.    I would presume that this would apply to other trash disposal services (because I think they all used Van Der Linde) so if you don’t use County waste I would call your trash service and find out.  

There is a recycling center on McIntire Rd, which is free.

No recyclables will be sorted out of the garbage. Very disappointing! We happen to use County Waste, (434) 296-6000, so I called them and thought I'd pass along the following info: - As of March 1 recyclables will no longer be sorted out of garbage collected by County Waste. - On April 1 County Waste will begin offering collection of recyclables. - They offer 2 sizes of recycling collection/containers. I think the larger one holds the equivalent of 8 garbage bags of material for $6/month. The smaller one holds the equivalent of 5 bags of material for $5/month. (The numbers may be slightly different, but I think that's right.) - They let me sign up when I called so give 'em a call if you want to arrange for recycling pickup. Happy recycling!
