Most UNwanted: July Edition 🚫Item: Pool Solar Blankets 😎They may soak up the sun, but they don’t belong in your recycling bin. These bulky plastic covers are made from flexible plastic film with air pockets, which is NOT recyclable, even if it's cut into smaller pieces. When you put these in your bin it can contaminate loads of otherwise good recyclables.♻️Help us keep the recycling stream clean and running smoothly. When in doubt, leave it out!#MostUNwanted #BluewaterRecyclingAssociation ... See MoreSee Less

🚨 Proper Disposal Alert: Medication 🚨Did you know tossing old or unused medications in the trash or flushing them down the toilet can harm our environment and wildlife? When medications enter our waterways, they can pollute rivers, lakes, and drinking water, affecting fish, wildlife, and even human health. Flushing medicines can also disrupt wastewater treatment plants, which aren’t designed to remove these chemicals.🐟💧Here’s how YOU can safely dispose of medications:✔️ Take them to a local pharmacy’s take-back program or designated collection site.✔️ Use community drug take-back events—ask your municipality when the next one is!✔️ If no options are nearby, mix pills with an unappealing substance (like coffee grounds), seal in a bag, and place in your household trash—but only as a last resort.Keep our water clean and our community safe by disposing of medications the right way! 💙♻️#properdisposalalert #bluewaterrecyclingassociation ...

🚛 Safety Minute with Phil D. Bin 🦺Hey folks, Phil D. Bin here with another safety reminder!When we're out on the route collecting your garbage and recycling, we’re frequently stopping and pulling over to the side of the road. We know you're in a hurry, but before you swing around us to pass, please make sure it’s safe.✅ Check for oncoming traffic.✅ Only pass when you have a clear view and enough space.✅ Never assume it's safe just because the truck is stopped.We've seen too many close calls lately, and your safety (and ours!) is too important to risk. Let's keep everyone safe on the streets. A few extra seconds of caution can make a big difference.Thanks for looking out—and we’ll keep doing the same!#SafetyMinuteWithPhilDBin #BluewaterRecyclingAssociation ... See MoreSee Less
