Recycling in the City of Los Fresnos

City of Los Fresnos would like to remind the community that they offer a Mobile Recycling Trailer for voluntary recycling by the community. The trailer was purchased through grant funding awarded to the City by the Lower Rio Grande Valley Development Council & Regional Solid Waste Program.

City officials are very excited to provide this service to the citizens of Los Fresnos. Recycling is a key component in protecting our environment and saving our dwindling resources. The effects of recycling are subtle but cumulative.

• Some of the benefits of recycling include
• Reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills and incinerators
• Conserves natural resources such as timber, water, and minerals
• Prevents pollution by reducing the need to collect new raw materials
• Saves energy
• Reduces greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to global climate change
• Helps sustain the environment for future generations
• Helps create new well-paying jobs in the recycling and manufacturing industries in the United States

Our world depends on it and it is never too late to get started.
