Greensboro recycling to go every other week
The good folks at city hall are holding a news conference on Monday to explain real slow that recycling will go to an every other week schedule here in the big city. From the news release:
WHAT: The City of Greensboro will host a news conference to announce its Every Other Week Recycling campaign.WHEN: Monday, January 7, 10:00 am
WHERE: Fairway Outdoor Advertising
1920 West Lee Street
Greensboro, NCBACKGROUND: Beginning January 28, 2008, the City will begin servicing residential recycling containers every other week instead of weekly. This change allows the City’s recycling collection program to operate more efficiently.
Hmm...given Scoop's wicked diet soda addiction and love of beer, we may need to invest in one of these.
Update: More here and a map of recycling zones here. In an earlier story regarding the city budget, officials estimated the move to every-other-week recycling would save $88,931.
