America Recycles Day

Each year, Gwinnett County Solid Waste Management and Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful join with the global community to celebrate America Recycles Day. Residents have the opportunity to drop off items that are typically more difficult to recycle such as electronics, latex and oil-based paints, clothing, sneakers, and tires. Paper shredding is also available.

 

 

Community Engagement

Gwinnett County Solid Waste Management hosts several educational events and outreach programs throughout the year by partnering with local organizations such as Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful and the Gwinnett Environmental and Heritage Center.

Gwinnett County Solid Waste Management team members encourage recycling and sustainability through:

  • School and camp programs
  • Educational events and presentations for civic and other groups
  • Adult and children’s learning programs
  • Fairs and expos
  • Virtual presentations
  • Guest sessions on podcasts and radio programs

 

Knowledgeable Gwinnett County recycling representatives share valuable insights about the benefits of recycling and sustainability to protect our environment and natural resources. Team members continually engage the community to actively promote the three R’s: Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle.
