Most of us recycle, or at the very least, most of us want to recycle. Each year on November 15th, millions of people across the United States take part in America Recycles Day, but what about the rest of the year?
Earthbound Recycling in Eureka will definitely be open on November 15th, and we will definitely be recycling that day, but we recycle 6 days a week, and we want to help you recycle, because deep down, we know this world is precious to you, and doing your part to save it is easy if you have knowledge to do so.
So, what can you actually recycle? Metal is the easiest kind of material to recycle. The concept of a scrap yard is not a new one, but most scrap yards only want your metal. What if you have paint, an old TV, or just regular old household single stream recycling? A scrap yard isn’t much help then, which is why you need a fully functional local recycling facility. That’s where Earthbound Recycling comes in. Along with buying your metal, any kind of household paint or chemical can be recycled here, we just prefer your items to be in the original container. There’s just a small fee of 30 cents a pound to recycle these hazardous materials.
You can also recycle your electronics with us. Most electronics can be recycled at zero cost to you, we just charge 40 cents a pound to recycle any kind of TV, along with a small fee to recycle certain kinds of batteries and fluorescent light bulbs.
Unfortunately, not everything can be recycled, but we still try to give things like that a new lease on life. If you have any knick knacks, books, or other small household items that are headed for the trash, bring them to us first. There’s a very real possibility we can add them to our Last Chance Resale Shop.
It’s a little cliche but being a one stop shop really does apply here. We want to do everything in our power to give you a local destination where you can recycle almost anything. We just need you. So, we would love to see you on America Recycles Day this November, but we’d love to see you today, too!
You can find Earthbound Recycling at 25 Truitt Dr. in Eureka, MO and we’re open 9 to 5 Monday through Saturday. If you ever have any questions, feel free to give us a call at (636) 938-1188. Doing the right thing for our planet has never been easier at Earthbound Recycling.
