Following the weekend’s EF1 tornado, Columbia residents and businesses are left to choose between trashing recyclables or taking them to private companies, without a timeline for services resuming.
Recycling in Columbia was stopped indefinitely Sunday after the tornado virtually destroyed the city’s Material Recovery Facility, reducing the building to rubble. Residents in Columbia are banding together on social media to find and share alternatives since the service suspension. Many are worried about fitting the extra waste into the city’s trash roll carts.

How to keep your recycled items out of the landfill.
Finding ways to reuse products isn’t a new phenomenon. The idea has been around for centuries, but growing landfills, global warming, and impacts from the recent pandemic have added extra layers of pressure.

The key word being “correctly.” While residents want to reduce and reuse through recycling, lack of education and industry hurdles have led to many individuals unknowingly recycling materials incorrectly, lead-ing to those increased landfill volumes.
THE RECYCLING PROCESS
Jefferson City partners with Republic Services and Ripple Glass to provide recycling options.
