Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful works to increase the availability of convenient, affordable disposal for certain items, such as tires, household hazardous waste, pharmaceuticals, and appliances. Our affiliates across the state often work with local solid waste and recycling offices to identify local disposal needs and implement special collections.
“I applaud our affiliates for providing this valuable service to their communities. Without special collections and drop-off locations, we would be expending far more resources on pulling those materials up the hillside,” states Shannon Reiter, President of Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful.
Visit the Keep Pennsylvania Beautiful website’s Calendar of Events to find a special collection site near you. Or contact your local Recycling Coordinator for a listing of one day events or permanent drop-off locations in your area.
