“Water Island is CRUSHING it!” 

A recycling program pilot has finally arrived at Water Island.  Starting Wednesday, January 24th, and every Wednesday from 8AM to noon you can drop off your aluminum cans and water bottles at the old “bus stops” by the firehouse.

Bagged recycle will be delivered to Crown Bay on Saturday mornings and collected by the Recycling Coordinator for the Saturday collection at The Market on St. Thomas. If possible, please crush your items to save on space.

There is a working “color code” for trash on-island that is very functional:

Black bags = Garbage
Blue bags = Processed Recycle, ready to go to St. Thomas
Clear bags = Bags waiting to be processed/mixed materials

A big thank you goes out to Katie Eyre and Kevin Butler for organizing this recycling program!
