Recent News From Facebook
The Town of Wallace recently removed the Recycling Centers located in town. Many of the items that were being put into these recycling dumpsters were contaminated with trash, meaning that the items were not recyclable, and ultimately were put into the landfill with regular trash. There was also increasing illegal dumping around the sites. The recycling industry has trended to a point where it is not cost effective for recycling companies to operate with contaminated recyclables, and there is a declining demand or market for many recyclable materials. Because of this the Town is charged to dump these materials into the landfill, where if they were not contaminated there would be no charge for recycling. For those wanting recycling options you can take sorted recyclables to one of the other managed Duplin County recycling centers, including one of the closer stations located at 423 Butterball Road off of Hwy 41 heading west of Wallace. We will continue to look for opportunities to provide recycling options in the future.
Here is blast from the past! There is also a lot going on in historic downtown Wallace today as well, come check things out!
