Yours truly — Nyla — is back. I heard you were looking for something to do this fall, so I put together this little list of absolute must-see and must-do fall activities!

Frank back from my trip! Now, you may not have guessed it, but the residents here were great recyclers. They just needed help getting their recyclables back to the curbside cart.

Gladys here, and the best way to make your relationship shine like new is saving recyclables from the landfill! Just be sure to rinse out any glass, plastic or metal containers before recycling them. 🥸😉

The Squad wanted to put together a little something to make your workday easier. Use these phrases next time you’re at work to maximize recycling clarity.
A pro recycler like yourself doesn't need a sign to take your common household recyclables (like food cans, pantry boxes and mason jars) curbside. But just in case ... here it is!

Even at the Ren Faire, we can’t help but look for the best recycling has to offer. Final Squad score would have to be a 10/10. Good food, amazing people and RECYCLING bins!
The way to deal with plastic bags? Never place them in your curbside cart! Take them to a grocery store instead. When you keep your recyclables loose in your curbside cart, you’ll also keep recycling workers safe.
Time for takeout? Those paper beverage carriers are recyclable, as long as they’re clean! However, most plastic and all foam takeout containers cannot be recycled curbside.
Check with your local drop-off location to see if it accepts these items.
Nyla taking on the mystical recycling. After you send your recyclables off for curbside recycling, an entire process takes place. And when your milk jug or yogurt cup becomes a new item at the end, you can rest assured it’s not magic that did it — it’s recycling!
Michigan recycling is a pretty big deal to the Recycling Raccoon Squad. The reason? Humans like you help out the environment so much — every day — each time you place a recyclable in your curbside cart.
Keep it up, Michigan!
