If you've been collecting plastic bags and film and aren't sure where to take them, this is your sign!

Just drop them off in the recycling bins at the front doors of Kroger or Publix on your next grocery run. Let’s keep them out of the landfill and give them a new life! 🛒🌍♻️

Quick heads up, neighbors — we're closing at 1pm TODAY for Memorial Day weekend and reopening Tuesday, May 27 at 9am.

Before we head out though — big news! 🎉 We are now accepting dehumidifiers at our recycling center. If you've got one collecting dust in your basement, bring it in. They contain refrigerant so they're handled as freon items, per the EPA — drop-off fee is $30.

Same goes for window AC units, mini-fridges, and full refrigerators. If it has a compressor, we'll take it.

Have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend. See you Tuesday! 💚
