Lexington Recycling Center Reopens Next Week

lexingtonky.gov

Lexington’s recycling center will be back operating next week.  Recycling has been offline since mid-April when a broken shaft shut down operations at the center.  Now fixed, residential and commercial curbside collection is slated to start back up Monday. 

Acceptable items for Rosie containers are aluminum and steel cans, plastic screw top bottles and jugs, dry corrugated cardboard, and glass bottles. 

Clean paper must still be taken to collection bins around town.
