Earth Month is Perfect Time to Talk Trash and Recycling
Raleigh Recycling offers free quarterly tours of the City's recycling contractor's sorting facility; the next one is April 1. Each type of material is sorted by people and
machines, baled and shipped to a
manufacturer to be made into new products.
Solid Waste Services is hosting
“Technology of Trash” at the department’s Wilder’s Grove facility, 630 Beacon Lake Drive April 8, 1 - 4 p.m. The free event, part of the N.C. Science
Festival, is open to the public. Participants will be able to
track a trash truck as it moves through Raleigh, read an email sent by a
garbage can and check out a recycling cart so smart it knows if it
has been emptied.
The City of Raleigh spring
"shred and recycle" event is April 9, 10 a.m. until noon
at the Method Community Park, 514 Method Road.
