Wrapping paper inside of pasteboard boxes inside of corrugated boxes were placed in, around or falling out of the dumpsters. Then heavy snow covered the blowing trash, making it impossible for the haulers to pick up their load completely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Boxes left outside of dumpsters require the driver to spend additional time emptying the dumpster and then getting out and filling it up by hand with the boxes lying on the ground before emptying it again. When the load gets to Ohio Gulch, it is dumped on the floor and workers need to sort through the mountains of snow-packed paper products to take out everything that isn\u2019t corrugated to make their bales truly recyclable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">The City of Hailey is looking to improve on this system and has asked the Climate Action Coalition (CAC) to help monitor the site as Hailey transitions to a new system for corrugated recycling. In the new year, the dumpsters at Hailey\u2019s Park &amp; Ride lot will be replaced with one onsite compactor and baler. This compacter will remove the need for Clear Creek Disposal\u2019s daily pick-up of the current nine dumpsters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><b>One tip for recycling right:<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Bring only flattened boxes of corrugated to the site<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Is your box corrugated cardboard? Look at the edge of the cardboard. If there is a wavy waffle of paper sandwiched between two heavy layers of paper, then your cardboard is corrugated. Cardboard without the wavy paper sandwich cannot be recycled in Blaine County.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><b>NUESTRA VOZ CUENTA<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">El mes de compras m\u00e1s grande del a\u00f1o ha hecho un l\u00edo m\u00e1s grande que usual en nuestros sitios de reciclaje de cart\u00f3n. El papel de envoltura dentro de las cajas de cart\u00f3n de pasta dentro de las cajas corrugadas se coloc\u00f3 dentro, alrededor o cayendo de los contenedores de basura. A continuaci\u00f3n, una gran cantidad de nieve cubr\u00eda la basura que soplaba, haciendo imposible que los transportistas recogieran su carga por completo.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Las cajas que quedan fuera de los contenedores de basura requieren que el conductor pase m\u00e1s tiempo vaciando el contenedor y luego salir y llenarlo a mano con las cajas tumbadas en el suelo antes de vaciarlo de nuevo. Cuando la carga llega a Ohio Gulch, se descarga en el suelo y los trabajadores necesitan ordenar a trav\u00e9s de las monta\u00f1as de productos de papel cargados de nieve para sacar todo lo que no es corrugado para hacer que sus pacas sean verdaderamente reciclables.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">La ciudad de Hailey est\u00e1 buscando mejorar este sistema y le pidi\u00f3 a la Coalici\u00f3n de Acci\u00f3n Clim\u00e1tica que ayude a monitorear el sitio a medida que Hailey hace la transici\u00f3n a un nuevo sistema para el reciclaje de cart\u00f3n ondulado. En el nuevo a\u00f1o, los contenedores de basura en el lote de Hailey\u2019s Park and Ride ser\u00e1n reemplazados por un compactador y empacador en el lugar. Este compactador eliminar\u00e1 la necesidad de que Clear Creek recoja diariamente los 9 contenedores de basura actuales.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\"><b>Un consejo para reciclar correctamente;<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Traiga solo cajas planas de cart\u00f3n ondulado al sitio<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u00bfSu caja es de cart\u00f3n corrugado? Mira el borde del cart\u00f3n. Si hay un gofre ondulado de papel intercalado entre dos capas pesadas de papel, entonces su cart\u00f3n es corrugado. El cart\u00f3n sin el s\u00e1ndwich de papel ondulado no se puede reciclar en el condado de Blaine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BY ELIZABETH JEFFREY OUR VOICE COUNTS The biggest shopping month of the year has made a bigger mess than usual at our cardboard recycling sites.
