Business is picking up! The business of waste and recycling workers, that is. These valued workers are responsible for picking up our residential and commercial garbage at home and at businesses. And they collect valuable recyclable items at the curb and at recycling drop-off centers to help protect the public health, our shared environment, and improve our economic development. That’s why the Regional Recycling District in Pulaski County is pleased to honor waste and recycling workers during Waste & Recycling Workers Week, celebrated now through Saturday. Waste and recycling workers help keep our neighborhoods clean and safe. Please take time this week to thank these valuable public servants.
