🥫 Metal food cans (give ‘em a rinse, we beg you)
🛠️ Scrap metal (that weird bracket from the shed? Yup!)

🎆♻️ Red, White, & Closed! ♻️🎆

The Recycling Center will be CLOSED on Friday, July 4, 2025, so our cans, bottles, and cardboard can celebrate Independence Day too. 🇺🇸 Even your recyclables need a day off!

We’ll be back and OPEN on Saturday, July 5 at 7:00 AM sharp—ready to party with your plastics, papers, and perfectly rinsed containers. 🧼

👉 Remember to clean up the debris after the fireworks fun! Fireworks, food scraps, and soggy paper plates do not belong in the recycling bin. 🧨🍔🗑️

Stay safe, stay cool, and please don’t try to recycle your fireworks. 💥🙅‍♂️
