🚫πŸ’₯ Recycling Alert: Keep Fireworks Out of Your Recycling Bins! πŸ’₯🚫

Hey, community! As we enjoy the spectacular displays of fireworks lighting up our skies, let's remember the importance of proper disposal. 🌌✨

Fireworks and their packaging should NEVER go into your curbside recycling bins. Here's why:

Safety First: Used or unused, fireworks can contain hazardous materials that pose a serious safety risk to our waste management teams and facilities. πŸ”₯

Contamination: Firework casings and packaging can contaminate the recycling stream, making it harder to recycle other materials effectively.

Protect Our Planet: Proper disposal helps us keep harmful materials out of landfills and ensures a safer, cleaner environment for all. πŸŒπŸ’š
