EHRLC, East Hampton Recycling Facility Issues "Call For Cardboard" Starting Friday

In honor of Recycling Awareness Month, starting on Friday, Oct. 25 and running through the end of the month, the East Hampton Recycling and Littering Committee and the East Hampton recycling facility has issued a “Call for Cardboard”.

Residents, businesses, and schools are asked to bring their clean, flattened cardboard to the East Hampton recycling facility at 260 Springs Fireplace Road and will be directed to drop off the cardboard in the old compost building.

There will not be a fee charged to enter the facility for those dropping off cardboard.

“Cardboard is in great demand, and is a commodity that we should be collecting and recycling rather than adding to landfills,” reads a press release from the town. “This ‘Call for Cardboard’ event will generate revenue for the town, and reduce residents and businesses costs to dispose of cardboard.”
