This is a friendly reminder about trash collection this week and next week. Due to Christmas and New Year’s, the normal Thursday residential collection will occur on Friday. (I think everyone in Pinehurst is on Thursday collection, but you can look up your collection day here.)
If you’d like to recycle stryofoam, Styro Recycle in Renton by Ikea will take clean, white stryofoam. I usually collect it in a box in my garage and drop it off whenever I have another reason to be in or passing through Renton. There’s also Busy Beaver Recycling in Everett, but I haven’t been there.
Also, information about recycling electronics, flourescent lightbulbs, etc.
