Curbside Recycling

Evolution of Recycling | How it Works

Reducing Our Consumption of Waste | Additional Resources

Think Before You Toss, There Really is no such thing as  
'Throw Away'

There is a better, more responsible alternative to simply tossing unwanted garbage in the trash can.

Active participation in Lake Lure’s curbside recycling program is one more little thing we can do together to reflect the kind of community that we want to be - one where citizens and visitors are good stewards of our limited natural resources.

At only $8.50 a month, plus the one-time cost of bins, the more households we have in the program, the more likely we can keep the price low and avoid a mandatory route, which is what virtually all the other communities around us have implemented.

Lake Lure prides itself on conserving land and water resources. Please go the next step and get into the habit of recycling, if not through the curbside program then through your own convenience centers. It’s easy, inexpensive and it really does make a difference.
