Franklin County is already ahead of the national curve with a 54 percent recycling rate, but there’s still room to grow! Believe it or not, over a million tons of material are sent to landfills each year, and 76 percent of that could be recycled or composted.
Not sure where to start? SWACO makes it simple with tools, tips and a quick quiz to boost your recycling know-how. From figuring out what goes in the bin to finding places to donate used items, everything you need is at RecycleRight.org.
Every can, bottle and box you recycle helps our environment and community. Let’s do better together. Let’s recycle smarter!
