Wachusett Earthday Recycling Center

Even though I haven't been posting here,  we have been busy.  Last October, Elly and I decided to volunteer at our local recycling center called Wachusett Earthday Inc,.  Many years ago when the kids were very young, we used to volunteer at the Earthday Recycling Days that were held twice a year on the ground of a local school.  Well, 10-15 years passed and a new multi-town recycling center was constructed to support the recycling for 7  of the Wachusett towns.  It is on land owned by the DCR (Massachusetts Reservoir Dept) and the DCR built a huge building and supports the effort.

Elly and I used to go there picking for eBay items and figured that since we were there all the time, we might as well volunteer.  The lady that is in charge is the same one from years ago at the Recycling Days and still remembered us.  So now we volunteer on all the days that the center is open unless we have an auction conflict.  The  Resource Swap Building is huge and everything is free.

Below are some pictures from inside the resource center.
