The Recycling and Waste Reduction Team implements programs to reduce the volume and toxicity of “waste” destined for landfills in order to conserve valuable natural resources and protect public health. We assist residents, businesses and institutions with activities that reduce and prevent waste, maximize recycling, compost organic materials, and minimize use and disposal of toxic products.
