Residents Get Help with Recycling


Residents in the Fort Frances area will soon be getting some tips on how to keep more of their waste out of the landfill site.

Operations and Facilities Manager Doug Brown says the annual garbage pick-up schedule, a fridge magnet and some info on local recycling programs will soon be delivered to area homes.

"The availability of what recycling, hazardous waste days that are going to happen in the next two years," says Brown. "The free tipped days at Hallowe'en, which places where you can drop off tires. All of the little tidbits about recycling."

A grant from Waste Diversion Ontario helped cover the cost of the materials.
