Believe or not, I have used this place since the 1990s when I lived close. When I lived in Detroit, I would save up my recyclables up in my basement and bring an Escort wagon worth up. But back then you had to sort by type, plastic - ONLY 1 and 2, paper, cardboard, glass - separate clear, brown, & green, and metal. You also put stuff in separate dumpsters.
But now you just dump everything in the same one. No plastic bags or number 4 plastic better known as styrofoam. It was great when I moved to Southfield 20 years later that this community service is still there.
You can drive up, park and take your stuff to the dumpsters. Quick and easy. Wonderful for those of us that live in apartments with no recycling. WTF, shouldn't that be required in the 21st century.
My visit there even allowed me to talk to another human being, at a very save social distance. I guess that is what the 21st century world has come to. read more
