The City of Lansing Public Service Department recently announced the opening of a brand-new聽recycling drop-off center. All community members can now conveniently drop off recyclable materials free of charge at this new facility.
Mayor Andy Schor celebrated the new development, stating 鈥淭he opening of this recycling drop-off center is another step in the right direction to make Lansing a more sustainable community. Residents who were unable to get curbside recycling services now have a greater opportunity to recycle. I am very excited to keep expanding our sustainability efforts in the future.鈥�
This project was made possible through funding from the聽Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE)聽as part of a recycling infrastructure grant awarded to the city. Lansing has been a long-standing advocate for recycling, launching its curbside program nearly 35 years ago. Lansing remains committed to responsible waste management and continues to invest in programs that divert as much material from local landfills as possible through expanded access and community education.
