Mandatory recycling in Redding, CA------(northern CA)


We have three separate bins at every house-----one for trash (garbage), one for "green" vegetation, and one for: tin cans, glass, plastic, alum, paper, and cardboard (all in the same bin). The recycle bin contents are then sorted out by a state-of-art facility on the edge of town.

Redding is a town of about 80,000.

It works great, from what I understand. We have very little trash going into landfills.

I thought all cities were doing this???????

Well.... Seattle, Redding, lots of places with better recycling than we have here, for sure.... I'll sure give you that! I've tried to encourage our city council people to get with it.... but seems the only response I got was from one who accused me of "talkin trash" ! ! :P



Its all just stuff and some numbers.
