Mike, please tell me if I'm correct or not -- putting things in a slightly different way and striving for simplicity: <br><br><ul><li>From the perspective of the Town (in order to enhance revenues and minimize costs borne by the town and we, the taxpayers) the best practice is to bring the following to the Town's Public Works Dept on Saturdays btw 9 - 5:
</li></ul><ol style="margin-left: 40px;"><li><span style="text-decoration: underline;">all</span> paper products (including newspaper, white paper, glossy paper, phone books, magazines, cardboard, etc.)</li><li>metal recyclables (cans, aluminum foil, etc.)
<br></li><li>(What else?)<br></li></ol><ul><li>The County recycling pickup on Wednesdays should be used for recyclable glass and plastic.</li></ul><br>Please correct as necessary! Thanks!<br><br>Dwight Holmes<br>Riverdale Rd.

<div>Cardboard boxes (cereal boxes, shoe boxes, shipping boxes), phone books, newspapers, magazines, paper, etc. can all be recycled at Public Works (5012 Queensbury Road) on Saturday from 9 AM to 5 PM. This is the best choice for the Town because the Town receives revenue from recycling these materials. Also, recycling at any location, rather than putting out with trash for pick up, helps the town because it reduces our dump costs. On Wednesdays (Riverdale recycling pick up day) the county accepts only newspapers, phone books, and magazines (no cardboard). The green and yellow dumpster at Riverdale Elementary is for newspapers, paper, and magazines (no cardboard). Recycling paper and cardboard at the Public Works facility is very beneficial to our town and I encourage all to do so. If you have any other questions please call Public Works at 301-864-1803
