Recycling Services understands the critical need to educate the public and to create a market for recycled products.

Our vision is to become a community-based, self-contained recycling center. RSI has made a moral decision to provide an educational program that is essential to life itself.

We strive to provide a center where recycling will create new products from old ones, and to preserve the rich heritage of the earth for future generations through other projects including organic farming, renewable resources and land preservation.

2009 Membership Drive Starting

Dear Friends:

2008 was a real test, markets for materials were up then way down. Our efforts have always been to continue collecting materials. Your economic support has carried us through many difficult times, this year our drive will need to raise $75,000.

Please also be aware due to slow winter collection on Tuesdays, we will not be open Tuesdays from Feb. 3rd, reopening regular hours starting March 17th. Saturday hours remain the same.

Remember to save your yard sale items till spring as we don't have the space to store these items in the winter. In addition, we're looking for workshop space in the area, for various solar, electric vehicle & micro mfg. projects. Please call or e-mail if you know of any.

Thanks for your continued interest & support. Jim Crater

The new gate fee is $8 per car. For the past few years, $8 has been the average per-car cost to process materials and run the center. We've managed to keep the fee below this for a number of years by supplementing our income with fundraisers. Unfortunately, that is no longer enough. Thank you for your understanding, and your continued support of recycling and environmental awareness!
