Dear Residents:
The Cuyahoga County Solid Waste District is pleased to publish its first-ever
Residential Recycling Report for Cuyahoga County. This annual report illustrates the
recycling performance of the county's 59 communities. Its purpose is to help you better
understand how your community compares with other communities in recycling and how your community
contributes towards meeting Ohio's 25% recycling requirement. The District hopes that publishing
this report will increase awareness of community recycling programs, encourage more
participation, and challenge communities to improve their recycling services.
Recycling is as important today as it has ever been. Recycling conserves precious natural
resources and energy and creates manufacturing jobs. Waste destined for landfills does not go
away. We must all be mindful of the effect our disposal habits have on our environment
Thank you for your recycling efforts.
Cuyahoga County Solid Waste District
