This recycling tip is brought to you by the Transfer Station Committee.
Editor’s Note: On July 1, Harvard will implement its new SMART (Save Money and Reduce Trash) program. Residents will be required to purchase a sticker to gain entry to the Transfer Station, as well as specially marked bags for the disposal of non-recyclable materials. The sticker entitles residents to dispose of glass, paper, or plastic at no charge. The Press is publishing a tip a week to help readers reduce the volume of their trash, while increasing the volume they recycle.
