Solid Waste Services Pocket Guide To Be Mailed This Week


Beginning this week, the City of Raleigh Solid Waste Services Department will mail all single-family households a small and comprehensive pocket-guide.

The comprehensive guide folds into a credit card-sized package and contains all of the collection options Solid Waste Services provides as well as the recycling opportunities available throughout Wake County. The guide is in full color and even offers photos and a map of drop-off locations, multi-material and household hazardous facilities, and collection schedules.

When folded, the handy guide can be tucked away into a wallet or glove box. It even includes a magnet on the back so it can be placed on a refrigerator.

“This is a comprehensive tool that should answer a lot of the common questions residents have about recycling and garbage collection,” said City of Raleigh Waste Reduction Specialist Linda Leighton. “There is a lot of information presented in a very convenient package.”
