This is a photo of medical waste that was put into someone's recycling container last week. It is blurry, but pictured is tubing and IV devices placed in with recyclables. This caused the City of Natchez's entire load of recycled materials to be rejected by the recycling facility.
We understand this was most likely a simple mistake, but please, use care in placing items in the blue recycling containers that are picked up every Wednesday throughout the city. Instructions are printed on the lid. For more information please see https://www.meridianwaste.com/guidelines/meridian-waste-natchez-hauling/city-of-natchez/
