Recycle Program


The Recycling program,started in 2011, is designed to be a benefit to the whole community.  We have made an effort to make the recycling program accessible to everyone in the county by taking collection trailers to different communities.  The towns in which we collect from are Hamilton, Severy, and Eureka. We have a mixed recycling trailer out at the county shop located at 510 S. Jefferson. There are also wire framed baskets designed to hold large amounts of cardboard.
