Keep America Beautiful Works with BellSouth to Help You Recycle Old Phone Books
Phone books are an essential resource for millions of consumers. But these books are made of materials that don't recycle as easily as newspapers, so you may need a little help figuring out how to recycle them. Keep America Beautiful is now working with BellSouth to give you the help you need.
Recycling your old phone book is an easy way to keep excess paper out of our community's landfills. The American Forest & Paper Association reports that more than 50 percent of the paper consumed in the United States in 2005 was recovered for recycling. But consumer use of paper also increased at the same time, so we need to continue to take the extra effort to recycle as much paper as possible - including phone books.
