Shelby Beautiful Clean


RECYCLE TRAILER ON HOLD


As of July 1, 2009 the City will temporarily cease operations of its recycling collection program. We hope and expect this to be a temporary situation and are optimistic that the recycling trailer will be available to re institute this program before the end of summer. This City, through this program is only the point of collection of materials which are then transported to a recycling operation. As of this month, the Lufkin recycling operation that accepted all locally-collected materials is closing, leaving the City with no alternative for disposal of items collected at the recycling trailer. This program in Center has grown over the last four years and now diverts a great deal of annual waste from typical landfill disposal. The City is currently seeking operations willing to accept recyclable items collected in Center.
