If you recycled in Fauntleroy on Sunday, you made history

Maybe “fall cleaning” is more popular than “spring cleaning”! An update just in from Judy Pickens:

West Seattle is surely riding higher in the water today after yesterday’s free Recycle Roundup sponsored by 1 Green Planet and Fauntleroy Church. Residents off loaded a record 14 tons of stuff, from water heaters and console TVs to computer monitors and floor lamps. All is even now being responsibly recycled locally for return to the resource stream. Watch for the church’s green committee to host another roundup in the spring.

If you can’t wait till spring, check out the South Transfer Station – and related links if you have items they don’t take. (WSB photo taken during Sunday’s event)

    I too have recycled at the Fauntleroy event.
    But I failed to ask what they do with donations (twenty dollars I gave) that they requested.
    Maybe someone can answer.

Sorry, comment time is over.
