It is time to end the pill bottle recycling project at Heritage UU Church. Mathew 25 Ministries no longer accepts pill bottles for recycling and there are no instructions for preparing bottles for reuse that I could find on their website.
We have not collected batteries or CFL lights for recycling for years now. Some batteries such as lithium batteries can be taken to Batteries Plus. Lowes recycling center accepts plastic bags, CFL bulbs, rechargeable batteries, and cell phones. Lowes garden center accepts plastic planter pots for recycling.
Perhaps there is an opportunity for someone to start a recycling effort that could bring sorted things to the Cincinnati Recycling and Reuse Hub. I noticed among the pictures on their website that they collect pill bottles.
Yours in the spirit of this church, Robin Wickett.
