    Beyond the Bin Monthly Recycling Drive

    Trumbull High School, 44 Strobel Rd, Trumbull · verified Jul 31
    See details

    A monthly community recycling drive at Trumbull High School, organized by Sustainable Trumbull with support from Terracycle, Planet Green Recycling, and TREX, focuses on hard-to-recycle materials that do not belong in curbside bins. Participants can bring used but clean items from any brand, including oral care materials such as toothbrushes, toothpaste tubes and flexible packaging, and floss containers, along with razors and beauty product packaging like makeup containers, cream tubes, and deodorant sticks. Plastic bottles such as shampoo bottles that are larger than two inches belong in curbside recycling rather than this collection. The drive also accepts hairstyling tools like curling irons and hair dryers, eyeglasses and contact lens materials, writing instruments including pens, markers, glue sticks, mechanical pencils, and highlighters, as well as flexible plastic film and #2 or #4 bags and wrapping. Clean plastic takeout containers are accepted except black. Additional categories include squeeze food pouches, textiles of any condition, printer ink cartridges and toner, black plastic flower and plant pots, and phone cases with pop sockets. Brand-specific packaging such as Late July chips and Entemann Little Bites is welcome. This event coincides with the THS Marching Band Redeemable Drive, so redeemable bottles and cans can be dropped off at the same time. Baystate Textile bins at Hillcrest and Madison schools offer drop-off for textiles anytime, and Saturday curbside pickup is available by appointment through Helpsy Co. Held on the second Saturday of each month, this drive offers a convenient way to reduce waste and keep challenging materials out of the landfill.
