No matter which candidate or issue gets your support on Tuesday November 4th, SWACO reminds voters as well as candidates to recycle the leftovers. Cardboard or paper yard signs, campaign pamphlets, mailings, and other materials are recyclable at SWACO's 212 drop off recycling locations in Franklin County (as well as through community curbside recycling). Metal and wooden supports should be removed from campaign signs before recycling.

If the campaign signs or other materials are reusable in another election, that too can help reduce the impact on the Central Ohio waste stream. Voters who receive mailings should recycle them, after considering the message. Those with plastic campaign signs should check with local recycling companies for options.
