New Midtown Road recycling site opens with great success

SPOONER — The new Recycling Control Commission (RCC) Midtown Road recycling site opened Tuesday, April 23.

The appreciation from the residents was overwhelming. In the four-hour time frame that the site was open, 65 cars came to drop off their recyclable materials. The RCC would like to thank the residents for their support and usage of the site.

The Midtown Road site, located at 7592 Midtown Rd., will be open Tuesdays during the summer months (April through October) from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. As a reminder, the recycling site will accept #1, #2 and #5 plastic containers, glass containers, aluminum, steel and tin food grade cans, paper and cardboard. The RCC asks that residents follow the Waste Management recycling guidelines when using the site.

For any questions or more information on what is and is not recyclable, contact Northwest Regional Planning Commission. The site is only open to residents. No commercial business use of the facility will be allowed.
