We are Listening - Use of the new Recycling Compactor
Posted: Feb 3, 2025, 1:44 PM
Officials with the Bossier Parish Police Jury and Keep Bossier Beautiful would like residents to know they are listening and are making changes to the overall operation of the new recycling compactor.
Facebook photos taken over the weekend show the compactor’s bin full of deposited boxes with some of them not completely broken down, thus making it impossible for others to recycle.
To rectify this problem, officials are planning to cut an 8-inch slot to the width of the door and install a switch to allow patrons to activate the compactor when the bin is full.
Meanwhile, parish officials will monitor the compactor's use and ensure that it’s availability to all parish residents.
