Recycling depot moves to Denis Drive

Officials from the city relocated one of their community recycling depots to Denis Drive near the Shell gas station, according to a media release. The depot, one of nine in the community, was moved from the Farnham's Furniture parking lot in Mountain Plaza to ease traffic congestion.

All depots have bins for corrugated cardboard, newspaper, office pack, magazines and catalogs, glass, and aluminum cans.

"We believe that the new location will be more convenient and safer for citizens," said Cindie Langston, solid waste division manager, in the release.Dennis Drive can be accessed from either CY Avenue or from Wyoming Boulevard.
