Recycling Tips
Here are some ideas on handling the glass, and some of the paper that can no longer be in your commingle cart:
1. Take your glass bottles and jars to one of six depots located.
New Glass Bottles & Jars Drop-off Locations:
- Ray’s Food Place, 735 N. Main Street in Phoenix
- Ray’s Food Place, 401 5th Street in Jacksonville
- Ray’s Food Place, 126 E. Pine Street in Central Point
- Sherm’s Thunderbird, 2347 W. Main Street in West Medford
- Sherm’s Food 4 Less, 2230 Biddle Road in East Medford
- Rogue Transfer & Recycling, 8001 Table Rock Road in White City
2. Rogue Transfer & Recycling, located on Table Rock Rd. in White City is setting up another bin at their recycle depot for what they call “High-Grade” paper. Things like office paper (printer/copier paper), mail (all envelopes, bills, solicitations, etc.) but no catalogs, magazines, or cereal boxes. This high-grade mix collected separately at the depot, and not mixed with the commingle, can be sent directly to a mill and recycled domestically.
3. Use the Bottle Drop for refundable plastic, glass and aluminum beverage containers – and get your dime back for each one you return.
