Blue Bin Suspended

April 13, 2020

Ann Petersen, alderman at Large and former Ewingville resident  adds this information:
The recycler used by the city is not accepting anything during covid-19.  Just put everything all together in the main can.  If you have too much for the main can, put the extra in the Blue Bin.  It will now be emptied into the same truck.  Don’t put anything on the ground – no blue bags, cardboard, etc.  All the garbage is picked up by automation.
Neighbors,

The above link takes you to the Blue Bin Recycling in Franklin.  It has been temporarily suspended.  Go to the above link to see what you may do with items to recycle.

Blue Bins at the street are dumped into the trash pick up at  your home.

March 16, 2020  from the Franklin Web Page: 
Franklin— The City of Franklin is sad to announce our new Blue Bin Recycling program is temporarily suspended immediately until further notice.  The recycling processor, Marshall County Recycling has halted services due to the COVID-19, (Coronavirus).  We have reached out to other processors, but at this time there are no services available.
In the mean time, citizens can take their recyclables to the Williamson County Recycling Centers or throw their recycling in the trash. See the locations at http://www.williamsoncounty-tn.gov/1846/Convenience-Centers.
