The Saline County Library will be participating in a recycling program through TREX, so they are now recycling plastic. Bring your used items to drop off at either the Benton branch at 1800 Smithers, or the Bryant branch at 201 Prickett. If they collect 500 lbs. of plastic (roughly 40,500 bags), TREX will donate a bench made out of recycled plastic to the library. So, bring the following items and place them in the designated bins:
- Grocery bags
- Bread bags
- Case overwrap
- Dry cleaning bags
- Newspaper sleeves
- Ice bags
- Wood pellet bags
- Ziploc and other reclosable bags
- Produce bags
- Bubble wrap
- Salt bags
- Cereal bags
All plastic must be clean, dry and free of food residue.
