Have a lot of recyclable cardboard boxes, but don't want to flatten and bundle them down to 3 foot squares for the city's curbside recycling? Throw them in your car and take them down to ACCO Waste Paper of Austin, 385-7600, 4712 Bolm Road (way on the eastside). You can drive right on to their gigantic lot and throw your boxes (regardless of size) on to one of their piles and drive off. They also recycle some plastics and other goods.

Newspapers, including colored inserts. Probably other things, but I've never asked.

I've taken all our newspapers here for some time. At first they offered to pay me, but I said no (my loads were too small to make it worth anything, anyway) and they eventually quit asking. I just back up the old VW to the dock and throw out my stacks; if someone is available they will come out to help.

Comments:

Robert Barron (10/4/94)

If you're into recycling for the money don't bother going here. On the other hand if you want to help the environment and do it quickly and easily this place will serve your needs. Now only if they would take cardboard and other plastics!
