FAYCO Recycling

FAYCO Recycling Program to End July 31, 2019.
“After providing a way for residents of Bond and Fayette counties to participate in a recycling program for the past nine years, FAYCO Enterprises is pulling the plug on its reycling operation. ‘It was simply a financial decision that our board had to make,’ said Sherry Hicks, the director of finance and support at FAYCO.
“‘There’s a downward trend in recycling, and we weren’t able to move some of the products we’ve collected. There’s a decrease in what the companies will pay us for the materials, and their purity standards are getting tighter.”
“The recycling operation was launched in 2010 as a way to enhance the finances of the sheltered workshop by collecting and selling the recylclable materials. It also provided work for its clients by employing them to help handle the recyclcables. But all that will end on July 31, 2019.
“The FAYCO board made the decision to discontinue the program at its monthly meeting in May, after what Hicks termed ‘a lot of deliberation and research.’”
