CVWMA wants to take the time to thank YOU, the every day recyclers through CVWMA curbside and drop-off programs. Over 34,000 tons of recycables have been recycled at the curb and over 6,000 tons at drop-off locations during fiscal year 2012. That's alot of paper, cardboard, botles,and cans! Together we're making great things happen in our region.
