The Transfer Station is accepting plastic bags and other sheet plastics for recycling as part of the Trex Recycling Program.
It’s the NexTrex Recycling Community Challenge. If we gather 1,000 pounds of plastic in 12 months, the Town of Washington will receive a Trex park bench from Trex.
There are two separate bins at the Transfer Station where you can deposit plastic bags and other sheet plastics for recycling. The plastics will be bagged, weighed, and taken to a NexTrex drop-off site.
