Second quarter totals for 2024 show the total amount of used beverage cans (UBCs) and bags of plastic beverage bottles sent in for recycling to be lower than the year prior. That said, we just got a report of more than 4,000 pounds and 281 bags of plastic bottles in the first week of July!
More than 40 communities (off the road, rail or river system) participate with support from members of the Alaska Air Carriers Association (AACA). We look forward to seeing additional shipments come in before the fall.
