Recycling News from Kent, OH

Here at Barberton Junk Cars we support NE Ohio recycling initiatives. We pay cash for junk cars, which are ultimately transformed via recycling toward the production of other products that can benefit all of us. We provide you a junk car quote 7 days a week, when unfortunately, your vehicle has passed its serviceable life span. Scrapping cars is a positive aspect of the US Auto Industry because it takes a product (in this case a car) and recycles the components to be utilized in hundreds of usable products in many different industries across the world. Most US vehicles are over 75% recyclable and newer vehicles will eventually be composed of nearly 100% recyclable materials.

On March 16, 2015 a report from kentwired.com by Lauren Biertempfel titled ‘Kent State hosts paper recycling drive as part of Recyclemania’ reported the following: “Kent State University will host its first Shredmania event March 17, a 1-day event in coordination with Recyclemania. Recyclemania is an 8-week long competition for university recycling programs to promote waste reduction on campus.

The shredding event gives the community the opportunity to shred personal documents, notebooks, magazines and more said Leah Graham, outreach and recycling coordinator at the Office of Sustainability. It’s sponsored by the Division of Human Resources, the Office of Sustainability and University Facilities Management.  A one day, free shredding event that is open to students, faculty & staff at KSU, as well as the community. The Office of Sustainability asked that university documents are kept separate from personal items for tracking purposes, she said.

University and student documents will be weighed and the total weights will be sent to Recyclemania. Paperclips, staples and other binding materials do not have to be removed in order for documents to be shredded. The event will take place during day one of E-cyclemania, a two-day electronics recycling drive.” The complete story is available at this link: http://www.kentwired.com/
