WITH THESE SAFE-DISPOSAL SERVICES PLAY SPRING-CLEANING SMART

S pring officially hits on March 19, which means many of you will be ready to deep-clean the house or office. Getting rid of old clutter plays a big part in spring-cleaning, but it’s important to remember many items shouldn’t just go into your garbage and, eventually, the landfill. Here are some great options in the St. Louis area for where to properly dispose of common items. PAPER PRODUCTS This is especially useful information for offices cleaning out old files, documents, paper supplies, and even books. Places like Central Paper Stock not only accept all your old files, but they also safely and securely shred and destroy them. Depending on the material, they’ll even repurpose them into new products to resell. Even if your papers have sticky glues, pesky staples, or are hardcover books, their recycling equipment can handle it. Central Paper Stock is located at 6665 Jonas Place in St. Louis. HOUSEHOLD MATERIALS These include a wide range of items, like electronics, scrap metal, paint, lawn equipment, and more. If there’s anything

you’re unsure about, bring it to Earthbound Recycling at 25 Truitt Drive in Eureka. They accept free drop-offs like old cell phones, rechargeable batteries, printer ink, a variety of scrap metal like copper and aluminum, and electronics like computers, laptops, and TVs. In some cases, they may even pay you for these items. For a small fee, they will safely recycle household paints and chemicals, as well as regular recyclables like plastic and glass. It’s a great one-stop-shop to safely dispose of many household wares. APPLIANCES These can be a little more challenging to safely dispose of, but instead of just tossing them out, if they’re still in working condition, consider donating them to charitable organizations like Goodwill or Salvation Army . Major appliances like refrigerators, washers, dryers, and water heaters have long been banned from landfill disposal, so hauling services like Freeman Junk Removal will pick up and properly dispose of your appliances for a small fee if they’re not fit for donation.

Keep our community healthy and safe by being conscious of how you do your spring-cleaning this year!
