What areas in the city have recycling and on what dates and times. I know some but I feel like it would be helpful to have it posted. |

Bump for this as I'd like to know as well. Got a bunch of glass containers I'd like to recycle. Liquors and out-of-state beer and such. |

Don't know where to go in the city, gotta be something. Hazel Park has an EXCELLENT curbside program. I can put old pots, pans, steel car parts and junk mail in my bin and they'll take it. There's a large recycling center at 8 and Evergreen you can drop lotsa different things off at labeled receptacles. Another is SOCCRA on Coolidge north of 14 mile. |

SOCCRA is only available to residents in a handful of cities in oakland county. |

Yeah for dropping off toxic stuff like Antifreeze. However, the receptacles for non hazardous stuff are self serve and not checked for residency. |

I live on the north end of Corktown (north of the freeway) and we don't have a recycle bin. Where do I look into such a thing? |

copied from the email i received from recyclemidtown... because it lists any and all recycling opportunities in detroit ------------------------------ ------------------------------ -------------------- quote: Starting in December recycleMidtown will no longer be operating. December's "Second Saturday" will not be offered to Detroit's residents. Services Available for December: Corktown's collection will be offered the third Saturday. The parking lot is at Michigan Avenue and 14th Street, the collection times are between 10 am to 2 pm. Rosedale Recycles will also be offered the third Saturday. The address is Pierson and Grand River. The collection times are 10 am - 2pm. Chene Ferry, 2263 E. Ferry at Palmer offers recycling services twice a week. Wednesday: 10:00am - 2:00 pm. Saturday: 9:00 am - 3: 00 pm. Starting in January, Greater Detroit Resource Recovery Authority will be changing their recycling services. Chene Ferry Services will no longer be available. New services with Detroit based companies and recycleDetroit will be involved with this new change. The details cannot be discussed at this moment due to contracts, yet when the time is right the announcement will be made. In order for recycleDetroit to be part of this change, recycleMidtown will have to end. I am sorry to have to announce this but I am excited that we will be bringing you all something bigger and better! Thank you to all who have participated with recycleMidtown! Your efforts and support were what made the success of the current recycle movement here in the city. With the work and success we were able to produce allowed us to grab the attention of the city. Now the city is taking a step forward to recycling Detroit.} |
