Abitibi Paper Retriever - Community Recycling Program
Conway participates in the Abitibi Paper Recycling program which raises funds for the Borough based upon the weight of paper that is collected. There are 2 collection containers located in Conway, behind the Borough Building on 3rd Avenue and next to the Fire Department on Gross Street.
Residents can drop off newspaper, magazines, catalogs, and mail.
After collection, Abitibi sends recovered paper to processing centers where it is sorted into various grades and prepared for shipment. It is then routed to de-inking facilities and mills where it's used to make recycled content newsprint. Nationwide, this recycled paper saves an estimated 2.2 million cubic yards of landfill space each year.
We encourage all residents to utilize this no-cost recycling opportunity to both help the environment and the Borough. Please contact the Borough Secretary for additional information.
