It Pays to Recycle in Fort Collins!

Want a quick way to save money for your household if you are not already doing it....start recycling. Just to give you an idea of how much you can save, my family started recycling here at home about one year ago. At the time, we were paying about $34/month for a 95-gallon container. We reduced our container to 65-gallon along with a 65-gallon container for recycling. There was no additional charge for the recycling bin, which they dump every two weeks, and our bill was reduced to $25/month. Just recently, because I realized we rarely have more than half a bin of trash, I switched out the container to a 35-gallon container. Want to guess our new monthly bill for the service? $12.50/month. In one year our trash bill has went from $34/month to $25/month to now $12.50/month. Over the course of a year saving $21.50/month, it amounts to $258/year. Not too shabby, and so if you are not currently recycling, I would highly recommend it!!
