The McIntire Recycling Center has a long tradition in our community dating back to the 70’s. Today, McIntire receives visits from over 500 customers each day and recycles over 5 million pounds of recyclables each year!

Please join me in asking elected officials to:

1- Keep Ivy Transfer Station and McIntire open to the citizens

2- Require more transparency of actual recycling numbers by private haulers

3- Create an Albemarle County Waste Management Plan that includes: 1) true single-stream recycling to get the highest recycling rates possible, and 2) subsequent use of a dirty MRF to process landfill-bound waste giving recyclables a second chance to be captured.
