Sunflower Curbside Recycling Offers Most Comprehensive Service in Lawrence!

Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011

Yes, that’s right. Sunflower Curbside Recycling offers the most comprehensive curbside recycling service in town. Don’t believe us? Check out this page that shows how to sort and what we take.  Sure, we take all the regular stuff, like glass, paper, cardboard, plastic, and all kinds of metals, but how about that hose you ran over with the lawn mower when you ended up breaking both?  We can take them.  How about that grill, dishwasher, or clothes dryer?  We can take them.  Call our competitors and see if they take all this recyclage.  You can find them at: http://lawrenceks.org/wrr/rescurbside.  Thanks for checking us out!

Sunflower Curbside Recycling Keeps Fuel Consumption to a Minimum

Tuesday, June 28th, 2011

Each Tuesday lately we’ve been fueling up our truck at the same point in our route. Yesterday I put 19.887 gallons of 50% biodiesel in there. So for the whole week of recycling we used less than 20 gallons of fuel! We feel pretty good about that.

Seven Years in Business!

Monday, August 2nd, 2010

Hi everybody. Today we celebrate seven years in business! The recession slowed us down a bit and Deffenbaugh knocked us back a few steps, but we’re still going strong. We still take more stuff than anyone else in town. Ever wonder what to do with that old washer or ceiling fan, that string of lights or the fixtures your plumber left behind? Give us a call. We’ll pick it up! Thanks to everyone for your support. We look forward to many more years of serving you and the community.
