Let's DO This Together! - Apartment Recycling Program. Sign up at www.buffalorecycles.org/apartments
The City of Buffalo, through a grant from the Recycling Partnership, is conducting a multifamily property pilot project. The Let’s DO This Together Apartment Recycling Program seeks to improve multifamily recycling systems by distributing resources and tools to improve the quantity and quality of recyclables collected from multi-tenant locations.
The City of Buffalo “the City” is focused on increasing recycling and recovery programs for the betterment of the community, the environment and the economy. A Comprehensive Recycling Analysis (CRA), which is required under New York State regulations, provides an opportunity to plan for continued expansion and improvement of existing waste reduction and landfill diversion efforts.
