I live in an area my friends like to tell me as, just past the banjo line of Metro Atlanta. We have no separate pickup however our county has for ten plus years published a list of drop offs for different items they would prefer to not have in the landfill, from computer equipment to batteries.
the issue is that they are not widely known and to be honest they really should be at least getting kids in school in on the act if not the schools themselves. Used to be schools had aluminum and paper recycling bins but those long left as people abused them with general junk. Now some fire stations do the same.
I think more people would play along if it were easier and more well known. Get corny if you have too, fire station drop offs, we save lives and you are saving the planet.
