Reuse and Recycle in the Junction is happening this Saturday June 29 from 9 AM to 1 PM. The location is the parking lot behind the Junction on 42nd SW between Alaska and Oregon Streets SW.

There will be two shredding trucks this year, supported by Windermere. Plus the usual array of recyclers ready to take items from Styrofoam to the usual array of electronics.

There will be drive up and walk-up areas on the 42nd Ave parking lot. The items for Goodwill should be in good working order and be ready for resale. In past events they had a number of items that folks tried to donate that needed to go to the dump.   

 Here’s the web page for the event.
