Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful to Celebrate America Recycles Day with November Community Recycling Event

LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. - Rezul -- Commemorated annually on November 15 by millions all across the nation, America Recycles Day is a Keep America Beautiful (KAB) initiative that promotes recycling. It's a day to spread the word about how recycling reduces waste, saves energy, and conserves precious resources. For Gwinnett County's contribution to the celebration, KAB affiliate Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful (GC&B) will partner with Gwinnett County Solid Waste Management to host an America Recycles Day event at the Gwinnett County Fairgrounds on Saturday, November 7 from 9AM to noon.

"At Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful, we are all about Connecting People and Resources for a Sustainable Gwinnett," said Schelly Marlatt, Executive Director of the eco-focused nonprofit. "Each year, our America Recycles Day event serves as a shining example of our mission in action. We bring our neighbors together with Solid Waste Management, haulers, and a variety of recycling partners. Unfortunately, we can't host events like this every month. When Gwinnett County citizens aren't sure where to take hard-to-recycle items that aren't accepted curbside, I encourage them to use the Gwinnett Clean & Beautiful website as a resource. On our recycling page, they can type the material they're trying to recycle into our search bar, and they'll be directed to a number of locations that accept them."
