Deb Odegaard, the Administrator of the Flin Flon Recycling Centre stopped by the CFAR studio on Friday to discuss a number of topics.
One of the big topics of discussion is the change to Wednesday Morning Recycling pick ups in Flin Flon. " People who paid for that service by buying a Red Bag, and if we see it on the curb we know they paid for the service and we pick it up. We lost our supplier for Red Bags as I took the last ones to the CO-OP last week , so we decided to try something different. So now in stead of purchasing a Red Bag , you purchase a large sticker that will go one one of your bags. The same number of bags can still be out there, and you put that on the curb and make sure we can see the sticker on the bag when we will drive by and pick it up."
Odegaard also shared that recycling tonnages have increased for the first time in years, but also stated that they would like to try to get even more people recycling.
