Cypress, Los Alamitos and Seal Beach announces a free recycling program for one year to 100 commercial and multi-family account holders in the tri-city area.

 The cities aim to utilize this pilot program to increase recyclable materials diversion in the business sector by 2 to 5 percent.

Eligible parties will receive a site inspection of their property to ensure that it is suitable for the pilot program.

 The site inspection looks at the following criteria:

Adequate enclosed space for a recycling bin at the business/dwelling;

Capability for the business/dwelling to generate enough recyclables to fill a bin on a regular basis;

Additional recycling capability for another bin be allowed at the business/dwelling;

And any potential interest in continuing the program and become financially responsible beyond life of the grant after a year.

For more details, call Consolidated Disposal Service at 562. 259-2826.
