City of Saint Paul issued the following announcement on Nov. 20.
Keep “tanglers” like cords, hoses and string lights out of your recycling cart. Like plastic bags, these items get wrapped around equipment at recycling facilities and workers spend hours every day removing these items from the machinery.
You can recycle cords and string lights at one of the Ramsey County Household Hazardous Waste drop-off locations or other Holiday Light Recycling locations.
