Campaign Sign
2025 Yard Sign Recycling Options

In addition to the two SWACO drop-off locations, many communities will be hosting their own collection events too. Click “Find Recycling Locations Near You” to find a near by community collection event. Please note: THERE IS NO COLLECTION THE SATURDAY AFTER THE ELECTION AT BILL MCDONALD ATHLETIC COMPLEX THIS YEAR. 

WHAT if you can’t make a collection event?

Paper signs can be placed in your home’s curbside recycling container and stretchy film plastic signs can be recycled at retail locations that accept film plastic bags. Metal stands can be taken to a local scrap yard and plastic rigid signs must be disposed of in the regular trash.

WHY CAN’T THIS type of plastic BE RECYCLED in my curbside bin?

The types of plastics used to construct these signs are not accepted at the recycling facility that processes recyclables in Franklin County. Due to the different types of plastics used, and the variability in sizes and shapes of these materials, they are difficult to separate at the recycling facility and strong end markets don’t exist even if they are successfully separated.
