Battle Creek, MI educates residents on recycling rules with bin tagging pilot
Battle Creek, MI Recycling Bin Tagging Pilot
In Progress
Waste Management teams apply red stickers to contaminated recycling bins in the pilot area. Tagged bins are not emptied and a support line is available to explain tagging decisions. Residents who receive three tags have their bins taken away until they speak with city staffers about recycling techniques. The pilot engages homeowners on how to prevent landfill waste including plastic bags from spoiling the recycling process.
