On Saturday, November 12, SWACO will hold a collection and recycling event for election yard signs at the Bill McDonald Athletic Complex in North Columbus (4990 Olentangy River Rd., Columbus, OH 43214) from 8 am to noon. The event is free and open to any resident of Franklin County.

All paper and plastic signs, including coroplast, and metal sign stands will be accepted free of charge. All materials collected will be recycled. In 2021, SWACO collected more than 3,500 pounds of metal, paper and plastic yard signs that were able to be recycled.

If you are unable to attend the event, paper signs can be placed in the curbside recycling container & the stretchy plastic signs can be recycled at retail locations accepting film plastics. Please don’t put coroplast signs or metal stands in curbside or drop-off containers.
