Recycling Coordinator
The Florence Township Office
of Recycling, under the direction of the Florence Township Recycling
Coordinator, is responsible for ensuring that residents and businesses
are participating
in recycling and that they are aware of the latest recycling information.
The office promotes recycling throughout the year by bulk mailing of
informational brochures, recycling calendars and by newspaper articles.
Residents of Florence Township enjoy the convenience of curbside recycling
which utilizes basic set-out methods. Glass, plastic, aluminum, tin
and steel containers all go into one 20 gallon recycling container that
is supplied by the Township. Newspapers, Office Paper, Junk Mail and
Cardboard are either tied or placed in paper bags for collection.

Interesting Facts

If all Sunday newspapers were recycled, 500,000 trees could be
saved from cutting.

Even
if a national recycling rate of only 30% was achieved, that would
save the equivalent of more than five billion (5,000,000,000)
gallons of gasoline, reducing our dependence on foreign oil by
114 million
(114,000,000) barrels.

Throwing away a single aluminum can, versus recycling it, is
like pouring out six ounces of gasoline. |
