Recycling Center Tours

Did you ever wonder exactly what happens in a recycling center? Here are some videos that show you what happens to all those cans, bottles, newspaper, etc. that you collect.

Bowling Green, Kentucky: "BG's Recycling Center" - giants mounds of recycled materials!
Keene, New Hampshire: "From the Curb to the Recycling Center" - the jumping aluminum cans are cool!
Miami, Florida: "Recycling Center - Part 1" - some good tips about recycling
Glendale, Arizona: "City of Glendale AZ Recycling" - if you like trucks, you'll like this video!

Is your town on this list? If not, you might call your local recycling center and see if they ever offer tours to visitors.
