Plastic Bag Recycling Drop Off Event 4/1/23
The Town of Rochester ECC is sponsoring monthly plastic bag recycling events for Town of Rochester transfer station permit holders.
Our first event is this Saturday, 4/1/23 from 11:30 am – 3:30 pm.
To participate in the program:
-Accepted pliable plastics (plastic bags) must only be dropped off during the event hours
-All plastics must be inspected & accepted by a volunteer
-This event is open to permitted users of the Town of Rochester Transfer Station
-Please see the attached flyer for a list of accepted plastics
This opportunity is made possible through the Bags to Benches program through NexTrex. Once we collect 500 lbs of qualifying plastics, the town will earn a bench made from recycled plastics.
Note: There is no longer a plastic bag recycling drop off at the community center. These monthly events are the only opportunity to drop off qualifying plastics for this program. Questions? Email ecc@townofrochester.ny.gov
