Living Green Recycling

Living Green Recycling would like to give thanks to everyone who stopped by our booth and signed up at the Simpsonville Fall Festival.  The event was a huge success in terms of new customer signups (11) and the material we were able to recover.  LGR used our event recycling containers and by the amount of plastic bottles and aluminum cans we collected the patrons really utilized them.

We will be setting up our Sign-Up Booth and recycling containers at the Finchville Fall Festival this weekend, so stop by and say hello.

Thanks again for all the support!!!!

The past few weeks for Living Green has been hectic as we continue to grow in subscribers as well as maintaining our current customers. We are currently approaching 125 customers, which include several local factories, businesses and residential customers stretching across all areas of the county.

The Shelbyville Horseshow was fantastic and we are very pleased with how the community responded with the event recycling containers we used for the event. Special thanks to the Shelbyville Country Club swim-team and Harper Kelly, who helped oversee the kids, who came and assisted LGR for the four-day event.

The four day event saw some of the largest weekend crowds the show had ever seen. The event was a huge success environmentally, based on the amounts of recyclable material that we collected.  We are looking forward to our next event in September with the Simpsonville Fall Festival.

LGR would also like to thank Torrey Smith and Smith Realty for his support and willingness to help Shelby County grow as a community. 

Please contact us anytime to start your curbside recycling service.

Living Green Recycling has volunteered to help the Shelby County Horse Show ”Go Green” this year.  LGR will be handling all the recyclable items at the 2009 event.  We applaud the Horse Show Board on making a commitment to making an effort to reduce the huge volume of waste that such a large event generates.  The Board recognizes the importance of recycling and the impact that they will have in this four-day event, while establishing themselves as leaders in helping Shelby County become a “greener” community. 

Living Green Recycling will provide all recycling containers for the event and will oversee the operation from start to finish while working with the volunteers who take great pride on making the Horse Show Shelby County’s grandest event of the year.  Living Green Recycling is interested in helping the community in as many ways as possible and gives special thanks to all the subscribers who have signed up for our curbside service. 

With the support from our current customers, Living Green Recycling can continue to give  back to events like this and looks forward to helping other programs in the future.  Please visit our booth at the horse show and learn more about us and the recycling options we can offer. 

Thanks,

LGR

This picture was taken Wednesday afternoon July 8th.  The photo above is one of our collection bags we use in the truck when we pick-up and sort the material.  This bag has approx. two days worth of plastics that we collected on the route.  PLASTICS ONLY!  This bag is sitting on a 12′ long trailer to help put it in perspective.  Think about the amount everyone is keeping out of the landfills and how this material will be processed and put back into the recycling circulation of new products .  Way to go Shelby County…..this is just the beginning! 

Next time you see owner and operator Jeff Long out in the street, sorting recycling at the truck, let him know what a difference he is making.  Great job Jeff!
