Don't forget to Recycle !!!

Hey everyone, I hope you are ready for some warmer weather, I am.

Well, as we are getting geared up for spring, that time has come to start thinking about spring cleanup. I know it is a drag to think about chores when the warm weather starts, but I recommend not waiting until it so nice outside that you wont want to clean. Get a jump on the spring cleanup season and start getting together some of your plastics, cardboard, and other recyclables ready for pick up.

If you do bot have a recycling bin, I should let you know that the city no longer drops them off. Sadness right. Oh well, the good news is that there are several places throughout the city where you can pick one up.


Recycling bins are available to single family households within the City of Omaha, at these locations.
