Rumpke Brings Curbside Recycling To Darke County

DARKE COUNTY, Ohio, October 9, 2015—Rumpke Waste & Recycling is offering every other week, curbside recycling service at no additional charge to Rumpke customers living South of State Route 47 in Darke County, Ohio.

The week of October 5 qualified residents received a mailer detailing their new recycling service. The mailer includes a list of acceptable recyclables and a collection schedule.

Red Rumpke recycling bins are being delivered to homes October 12-16. Recycling collection will occur every other week on the same day as trash collection. Depending on the address, service will begin for some the week of October 19 and for others the week of October 26.

Acceptable recyclables include glass bottles and jars, plastic bottles and jugs, paper, broken down cardboard, cartons and aluminum and steel cans. Residents should place materials loosely, mixed together in bins. Plastic bags, toys, cook ware, syringes or household hazardous wastes are prohibited.

All Rumpke customers will receive one bin initially. “If residents are easily filling one bin and need a second one they can request one at no charge by calling Rumpke at 1-800-232-3960 or by emailing Rumpke at www.Rumpke.com,” said Mike Bramkamp, vice president at Rumpke.

“The average American produces more than 4.5 pounds of trash every day, more than half of it can be recycled,” added Bramkamp. “As Ohio’s recycling leader, Rumpke is committed to growing recycling. We are striving to make recycling easy and accessible. We are hoping that this will encourage more participation.”

In recent years Rumpke has invested more than $50 million to bring state of the art recycling innovation to Ohio. The firm has 10 recycling facilities in all including a unique, award-winning, glass processing facility in Dayton, OH and one of the fastest, most technologically advanced processing facilities in the country located in Cincinnati. Residents can view recycling in action by visiting the Rumpke CleanAndGreen channel on YouTube.

Headquartered in Colerain Township, Ohio, just outside of Cincinnati, Rumpke is one of the nation’s largest privately owned residential and commercial waste and recycling firms, providing service to areas of Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and West Virginia.
