Do You Know Where Your Recycling Goes in SLO County?
Everyone knows recycling goes in your blue bin, whether it's at home, at work, or when you're walking around town (no plastic bags please!)
But, do you know what happens when recycling goes "away"? There are plenty of misconceptions and tall tales about recycling, but we're here to tell you that it works. A lot. Recycling keeps thousands of tons of material out of the landfill each month in SLO County alone. And almost all of that material stays domestic, getting turned into new bottles, cans and other items right here in the United States.
Don't believe us? Have a look at this map to learn about the next life of your recycling. And thanks for doing your part!
