Hi! .. just moved here from Canada. I was wondering if there is anywhere in Rocky Point to take plastic bottles to for recycling instead of just putting them in the garbage?

I'm pretty sure I saw a place on the North end of town, on the main road coming in. I do know that one of the families in our community collects the glass, plastic and cans for recycling. Maybe one of the "locals" will have better info/directions.

Las Conchas set up a nice little recycling station at the entrance to the community

There is a recycle center on Josefa just past the Super Ley Express a bit on the right if you are going North.

The CANACO (Chamber of Commerce) building is right behind the Shrimp Park in the center of town. They've got a reclycling program that will benefit the city by providing more trash receptacles. You can drop recyclables there during business hours.

If you watched dual survivor, Cody drinks the yellow ones to stay alive.

Rosy;
Do you happen to know what they accept to recycle? Newspaper, cardboard, plastic? Of course aluminum and brass is good for income to the program. I don't generate a lot of aluminum but I sure would drop it off there if I did.
