Somethings coming... Are you ready for another riddle? Put your guesses in the comments. 

Your only hint is end of the day on Monday.

Let s talk about recycling, specifically the roll-off containers. These bins are clearly marked and separated for three things - plastic, cardboard, and glass. Unfortunately, some folks continue to ignore these guidelines and dump items that don t belong, like tires, lumber, garbage bags, yard waste, construction material, mattresses, and more.

This misuse is not a small mistake; it s a significant problem that can result in the entire load being discarded, which costs time, money, and resources. We re not talking about a little mix-up like cardboard in the plastic bin - this is a disregard for the entire recycling process.

If these issues continue, we may have no choice but to remove the bins. Please, let s all be responsible and respectful. Use the roll-offs only for their intended purposes. It s simple - do your part, and help us keep recycling effective for everyone.Photos from City of Fort Dodge Government s post
