Ohio’s Electric Cooperatives enhanced their existing recycling program by adding collection containers to capture hard-to-recycle plastics through the Hefty Renew Program. Custom signage was also implemented to help improve diversion efforts among employees. In addition, Ohio’s Electric Cooperatives participated in a “lunch and learn” session with SWACO to learn more about the updated recycling program and accepted materials.
