On Monday, June 18th, this transfer station (i.e. North) was closed due to a power line that was down across the road. I looked at the website at 9 AM to see if it was open, and the website said it was open from 8-5 this day. Just a few blocks from the site, I was stopped and informed by an employee that it was closed. Instead I had to travel 35 minutes south to the southern Metro Transfer station along with many other frustrated people looking for a place to unload Hazmat and trash. It was a rare circumstance, but why can't they have a real-time website that warns people when the dump is closed for the day?

Most paper receipts are not recyclable. This is because they're printed on thermal paper, which contains a chemical called bisphenol-A (or sometimes bisphenol S) that cannot be easily removed from the paper during the recycling process. From the Treehugger website.

Is there a recycling alternative to throwing plastic bags in the trash.
