“Tidy Your Township” Campaign 2015

June 24th, 2015

During winter 2015, Recycle Ann Arbor reached out to surrounding townships with one main goal - reduce the amount of illegal dumping in townships by ensuring that residents know where they can take frequently dumped items.

Our research suggested that the following items are frequently dumped:

  • Tires
  • Construction materials and concrete
  • TVs
  • Refrigerators

For those townships proactively interested in tackling this issue, Recycle Ann Arbor researched environmentally sound options for their main dumping issues and waste streams. The options included Recycle Ann Arbor facilities, such as the Drop-Off Station or the Recovery Yard on Jackson Road, but also included Washtenaw County Services such as the Home Toxics Collection Program and Clean Up Events.

We would like to thank Saline, Barton Hills Village, Webster, Salem, Dexter, Freedom, Superior, and Milan for agreeing to be proactive about disposal solutions.

If you live in a surrounding township and would like to know more about this campaign or recycling and waste issues, please contact us or visit our website.
