Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Greenville Public Works Recycling Coordinator audits a recycling collection on Monday, October 12, 2020. The audits are performed to determine common contamination issues that can be addressed through educational campaigns. The most common contaminates are styrofoam, bagged materials, lawn waste, and food items.
Residential single-stream collection is hand-sorted at the ECVC Recycling Sorting facility, where contamination (non-recyclables, and other materials not being accepted) lead to increased processing costs and lower sorted material value. Non-recyclable materials, and materials not being accepted, are ultimately sent to landfills after sorting, but at a much greater cost than if disposed of through regular garbage collections. Learn more about what materials are accepted for recycling—and what not to put in recycling collection carts—at bit.ly/RecycleInfo. |
