We, the undersigned, are tired of trashing recyclables: plastics, glass, metal, and cardboard. We ask the City to create a curbside recycling program in Ruston Louisiana. Replace the two-day trash pickup system with a day for trash and another day for recycling. Recycling drop-off centers have failed in the past, and there are no resources in Northern Louisiana for residents to recycle, especially plastics and glass. A curbside recycling program is convenient and can provide incentives for residents to participate. You would provide a much needed service. Thank you.

The scale of recent support confirms that the city council can no longer ignore the demand for a curbside recycling program. I am drafting a formal request for a meeting with the Mayor to present these documented concerns and outline potential implementation models.

Way too much trash ends up in the landfill that could be recycled. Ruston needs to get with the times.

The drop off centers are a total mess and always full. Curbside is the only way this will actually work for people in town.

Its ridiculous that we have to drive all the way out to drop off cardboard. Just pick it up at the curb like every other city.
