Apartment and Multi-family dwelling recycling
Multi-family dwellings have options for recycling programs. If you live in a rented apartment, the first thing to do would be to approach the manager of the building and request recycling services. Recycling usually gets started when there is a general interest from the residents. Deffenbaugh Industries has a co-mingled recycling program for apartment complexes called One Planet, One Chance. Abitibi-Bowater has a recycling program for apartments called Eco-Rewards.
