Manistee County is working to expand and improve on recycling options for the County's citizens. For additional information or to share suggestions and comments, contact the County Controller/Administrator's office at 231-398-3500.
Would you like to make an impact that benefits your local community? Are you a recycler who is friendly and can communicate well with others? Then you're just the type of person we're looking for! Volunteers are needed to staff tables at local events throughout Manistee County and talk about the importance of recycling and recycling correctly. We'll provide you with training and all event materials. Please give us a call to learn more or to sign up to volunteer at an upcoming event. Toll free 855-2GO-ZERO. Volunteer opportunities will also be posted to www.volunteermatch.org
Through a generous donation from Packaging Corporation of America (PCA), cardboard recycling trailers are located at the following locations: Kennedy School, Manistee Catholic Central, Wellston Elementary School, the old high school in Brethren, and Onekama Township Hall. Students monitor these trailers and PCA donates money to school programs for cardboard recycled in these trailers. Please help fund student programming by recycling cardboard in the PCA trailers!
