It's Wednesday. Don't place grass, yard waste, and organics in your curbside recycling. Instead, use a special collection program or drop it off at a local facility. You can also start a compost pile in your backyard. See cuyahogarecycles.org/recyclables/yard_waste/

We're kicking off summer and planning for low-waste outdoor events. Provide reusable plates, utensils, cups for picnic guests. Serve beverages in recyclable bottles and cans. Place well-marked receptacles so they know where and what to throw. More ideas at cuyahogarecycles.org/party_event_recycling/
