Orange’s Transfer Station and Recycling Center received a new shed for recycling plastic bags and plastic films on June 20. The items cannot be recycled through the normal recycling stream.
The shed was delivered by The Home Depot store manager Matt Hyatt.
“With the help of Transfer Station equipment operator Gerry Butler, we had it set up and ready to go within minutes,” said Mitch Goldblatt, a selectman and chair of Orange’s Recycling Committee.
Goldblatt said the current shed is temporary; The Home Depot has approval for a permanent structure, but it may not be ready for a few months.
