Happy Earth Day: It pays to recycle!
If you live in the City of Dayton, there’s an ever better reason to recycle! Recycling saves the environment, but it also saves money. In March, Dayton recycled 430 tons of materials, saving $16,000 in landfill disposal fees, which would equate to $192,000 over the course of a year. When we reach 500 tons per month, it will be FREE to get rid of recycling. By achieving our goal of recycling 1,000 tons a month, we’d save about $340,000 a year. Help us save money, reduce solid waste, and protect the environment. Recycle!
