Please see attached information regarding recycling changes...
Due to the continued changes in the recycling industry, markets and sorting operations, the Wellington Recycling Center must halt the collection of #1 plastics. These changes were placed upon us immediately, therefore, we must also act immediately. Beginning Saturday ~ April 23rd, plastics will not be accepted until we can locate another processor to take the product.
We will continue to accept cardboard, chipboard, paper, aluminum and tin as we have.
A full list of accepted materials can be found on the City’s website, www.cityofwellington.net, Public Works, Sanitation links under the Government drop down menu on our homepage.
For additional information, please contact the Public Works Department at (620) 326 7831.
