Announcement: Glass Recycling now via Purple Containers
Posted: Fri Oct 04, 2019 11:00 am
Hi All,
Effective immediately, Fairfax County and American Disposal will no longer accept glass for recycling. The County has installed purple containers specifically for glass recycling all over, and the closest one will thankfully, conveniently be located at Providence Community Center!
It is disappointing that glass will take this extra effort now. But, glass takes ONE MILLION YEARS to decompose, so please take the effort to recycle your glass.
Here is the information on the updated Fairfax County Recycling Policy:
