Super job SalemRecycles! Really convient to just pull up next to the trailer and volunteers at the ready to remove my donation from my car. And a tax receipt to boot!
Having this event made something I dread so much easier. 5 minute drive from the house and not driving around looking for a drop box or dealing with RT1 traffic to go to Salvation.
Thanks again and hope it was a success and it can be done again in the future.
