Containers simplify cardboard recycling Published Nov. 2, 2010 By 81st Infrastructure Division KEESLER AIR FORCE BASE, Miss. -- Zero Waste Solutions, teamed with Mark Dunning Industries, is Keesler's new integrated solid waste management contractor. Keesler's goal is to reduce, reuse and recycle to help the Department of Defense's goal to divert 50 percent of its solid waste by 2015. As part of this effort, a new cardboard collection system has been introduced that uses "Recycle Blue" collection containers placed at strategic locations around the base. The contractor hopes the containers will help the base recycle cardboard instead of adding it to the waste stream. Break down and flatten cardboard boxes and insert them into the slot located on the "Recycle Blue" containers. For more information or to request a "Recycle Blue" container at a base facility, call the recycling center, 377-4546 or e-mail robert@zerowastesolutions.com.
