The Pearl Park Drop-Site Organics Recycling Program has been up and running for almost a month and it is going great! We have had amazing participation and interest. Thank you to all of you who have participated; and to those that have been volunteering at the drop site, Thank you! This program would not be a success without all of you and your commitment to doing what you can to protect and preserve our resources!
A few updates we would like to make you aware of:
The current drop site hours, staffed by volunteers, are Tuesdays 4-7 p.m. and Saturdays 9 a.m.-12 p.m. This will continue through the end of June (possibly July). After that, the carts will continue to be locked, so if you have signed up to participate and completed your five-minute training, we will email you the code to the carts at that time and you can drop off whenever you’d like. The code will change periodically and we’ll continue to email the new one to all registered participants.
If you are not registered and want to be, please visit the program’s website and sign up! http://www.minneapolismn.gov/solidwaste/organics/index.htm
After registering, visit our drop site during scheduled hours and get your five-minute training by one of our volunteers.
