Sign up now for curbside recycling

With the support of the state of Minnesota in cooperation with Aitkin County, are residents have the opportunity
to make Aitkin County a “greener” place.
Through a grant from the state, Recyclops is working with Aitkin County to make recycling much more convenient for folks who
don’t currently have curbside recycling available. The county received a $91,325 grant in 2022 from the Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency to subsidize the cost of curbside collection of recyclables outside of the city of Aitkin. Aitkin County has a match and/or in-kind
requirement of 25% of the grant total.

The first 625 customers who sign up for curbside recycling in those townships will get weekly service for $10 per month for 10
months. This startup program begins March 1 and goes through December, according to Environmental Services Director Andrew Carlstrom.

Those who live in the townships of Aitkin, Farm Island, Nordland and Spencer who are interested in getting the special price
for 2024 should go to www.Recyclops.com and type in their address.
