Election Day is over, which means it is time to take down political yard signs. Dispose of campaign signs and stakes in an environmentally-friendly way by giving them to Lexington’s Division of Environmental Services to reuse and repurpose, through Nov. 21.
Never put signs or stakes in your recycle cart or a mixed recycling dumpster. Yard signs and stakes harm equipment at the Recycle Center. However, there’s an even easier, environmentally-friendly option: donate your unwanted yard signs for reuse.
The City has partnered with businesses and organizations throughout the county for a special yard sign and stake collection. The stakes are reused and the signs are repurposed for craft projects. Stakes that cannot be reused are recycled through LFUCG’s metal recycling program.
Environmental Services will have collection bins at the following locations from Wednesday, Nov. 8, to Tuesday, Nov. 21.
