Dear Benzie County Residents. The Residentail Recycling Sites are going to be extra busy over the holidays. Please be sure to ALLWAYS break down all of your cardboard before placing it in the recycling bins. Never leave any materials outside of the bins as that is considered illegal dumping, and punishable by law. If the bins are full, please try another of the 7 recycling sites around the County, or come back once the bins have been emptied. Our hauler is doing the best they can at emptying the bins in a timely fashon, but this is extra challenging around the holidays. No recycling from businesses is allowed at any of the recycling sites in Benzie County. Lets work together to follow the rules of recycling. Only the materials listed on the front of the bins are allowed in the bins, be sure to break down your cardboard, and never leave items at the sites if there is no room available in the bins. Thank you for your cooperation. Happy Holidays!
