WHAT:
In an effort to keep waste out of landfills, the City of Orlando hasset up sixcollection sites for elections yard signs to be recycled. The metal frames will be recycled locally, and the plastic corflute signs will be transported to NuCycle Energy in Plant City where they will be transformed into NuCycle's Enviro Fuelcubes. The Enviro Fuelcubes, currently being manufactured by NuCycle, are used to generate electricity, replacing coal as a much cleaner energy source. Each location will have marked blue bins or crates for easy drop-off of signs and stands.
