It was a year ago that the Flin Flon Recycling Center expanded their red bag curbside program in Flin Flon to a weekly pick up.  Their Administrator Deb Odegaard says the every Wednesday pick up makes it more convenient for people to recycle. She explains they started driving to all of Flin Flon and usage went up slightly noting they have had some new homes signed on and there are some who have moved away so in September they reduced the route but it’s still definitely worthwhile and it’s covering costs so they’re keeping it there.  She says many people tell them they really need or use the service and it’s a valuable one.

Odegaard adds there’s a list of streets where they do pick up on their website.  If your street is not on the list call the Center and they will add it.  Details on curbside pick up are also on their website which is www.flinflonrecycle.org.
