A landfill is a tremendous asset to each one of us and we need to conserve the space by recycling to make it last as long as we can.

There are lots of items that can be recycled.

Whether it's the newest phone, television, or laptop. It's important to properly get rid of your outdated or unwanted technology.

Judy Bowles says that it is important that we save our natural resources because it is much cheaper for us to make something out of a material that was already harvested.

If you are looking to recycle, there are three drop-off locations in Dougherty County. If you are looking to recycle your gadget, you can bring it to the Keep Albany-Dougherty Beautiful office located at 2106 Habersham between 9 AM and 4 PM Monday through Friday.
