The City of Mountain Home has announced the curbside pick up of recyclable items by Waste Connections, formerly Methvin Sanitation, in the city will end at the end of June. The move comes after the Baxter Day Service Center notified the city and Waste Connections they could no longer accept the curbside recycling.
The mayor says the recycling center is having to stop accepting the items picked up each week by Waste Connections for several reasons.
Listen:
The money the city has collected for the Baxter Day Service Center has been a good amount.
