Recycling Top Tips!

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING 

>>>TREX PLASTIC PROGRAM<<<<

***We are now taking your plastic again***

Drop off permitted at the Monthly Recycling Depot ONLY


We receive MANY items that are NOT accepted by TREX. This results in volunteers spending MANY HOURS sorting through the collections. 


SIMPLE RULE OF THUMB :–

  • If it STRETCHES - ACCEPTED!
  • If it CRINKLES - NOT ACCEPTED!

Here are the Top 6 items we receive that are NOT accepted by TREX and should GO IN THE TRASH:

  • Plastic meat casing/packaging
  • Clear basket/gift wrap
  • Pet food bags/packaging
  • Cheese wrappers
  • Feminine product packaging
  • “Non stretchy” food/snack packaging

Please Note the following:

  • Plastic must be CLEAN
  • Chip bags are NOT accepted for TREX or Terracycle now.
  • ⇩ALL paper labels must be removed⇩ (cut out) of all plastic mailing envelopes/pouches before sending in for TREX
