recycling

Was at the Post Office on Bertrand a few days ago and saw something that made me ask, "Why Do People Do That?"

Compost Facility at 400 Dugas Rd. will close at noon on Friday

Saturday's the day to get rid of those old paint cans, poisons and household chemicals! Safe disposal is important because chemicals that have been stored for extended periods pose a health threat if spilled, especially to children and pets. It’s also important to keep chemicals out of garbage trucks in neighborhoods because chemicals have the potential of catching fire in a truck, or even worse,

Since Shannon has been away, I have been going to 'my' corners of the house and trying to get rid of some of the stuff that I have collected over the years.  (I am NOT a hoarder, I am 'nostalgic'!!)  Clothes that I don't wear anymore were sent to Goodwill; cell phones and chargers were donated to charity, etc.

The NDP Group reports sales of pantyhose topped a billion dollars in the past year. What to do with your old ones?  Recycle!  No Nonsense is encouraging their customers to send in worn out pantyhose, stockings & knee-highs, any size, any color to them for recycling.

If you live in the city of Lafayette or in unincorporated areas of Lafayette Parish, city-parish government would like you to attend their household chemical drop-off day Saturday, April 16, from 8 a.m. until noon at the Cajun Field parking lot...
