The WMEA Program Manager, Becky Suvar, provided an opportunity to the Junction community to take a recycling survey on Saturday, March 10th. After reviewing the results, residents were willing to bring their recycling to the same location, the old St Marys Catholic church, but on a different day and a different time slot.
The recycling truck and trailer will arrive in Junction on the second Wednesday of each month from 12:30 – 1:00 p.m. The WMEA program will accept the regular recycling items:
Glass – rinsed, lids off – sorted white from all other colors
Steel cans – rinsed
Plastics – # 1 and # 2 ( numbers found on bottom of container in a triangle). All other plastics are not accepted
Newspapers – in boxes, bundled or in plastic bags
Magazines – sorted from newspapers
Mixed paper/shred – bagged
Junk mail – sorted from all other paper products and bagged
Cardboard – broken down – no pizza boxes due to food contamination
Aluminum cans – rinsed
This recycling opportunity will continue unless the site is abused as it was in Oakwood. Do NOT leave recycling on ground before or after the designated time.
If you have questions, please call Becky Suvar, WMEA Program manager at 419-399-3630 or cell – 419-399-7135.
