Spring Cleaning: Always Remember to Recycle Your Clutter

Spring

Cleaning: Always Remember to Recycle Your Clutter





The

relentless winter is finally diminishing, which means spring is on the way.

What does warmer weather mean for us? Spring cleaning! It’s time we put our

lives back in order.





But before you start hauling boxes of junk, piled-up

trash — stop. Chances are the majority of the trash you’d be sending to the

landfill could be easily recycled for free at the Springtime Recycling events

provided by Safe Harbor Recycling.

April 3rd , 4th from 10 – 2 pm at the

Unity Church of Lake Orion parking lot, 3070 S. Baldwin near the corner of

Baldwin & Waldon Road in Orion twp., MI 48359.







 When to schedule our Free pick up service from Safe

Harbor? If you have either large appliances, large bulky metal items, such as

exercise equipment, or at least garbage can full of our acceptable items

Anytime is a good time, the Free recycling pick up service is available year

round, before and after collection events.
