No New Master Recycler Plastic Roundups Scheduled Markets in the niche plastics recycled at the Master Recycler Plastic Roundups have dropped and the events have been canceled until further notice. Agri-Plas inc. (the company who recycles our plastics) hopes to revisit the idea of roundups in the future. We can notgive any information about when that might be. You don't have to hold onto those plastics waiting for the Roundups to resume. The recycling depots mentioned above recycle just about all the plastics collected at the Roundups - and even paper, metal and glass. Recycling is still the right thing to do! Recycling plastic helps save energy, reduce green house gas and conserve our natural resources. Thank you for your patience. We hope will check out the recycling options in the community. You can request to be placed on the email notification list. If a new date is scheduled you will be contacted. |
