Scrap Metal Recycling Challenge begins March 1, 2008

Starting March 1, the communities of Cabin John and Carderock Springs will compete by... recycling scrap metal!  The Scrap Metal Recycling Challenge will run for seven weeks, from March 1 through April 18, 2008.

The Challenge will be supported by more than 120 volunteers.  We trained them this week, and they are ready to recycle lots of scrap metal!

We'll measure each community's progress by weighing the metal collected from its residents.  At the end of the Challenge, we'll compare the weights, and announce the winner.

Don't live in Cabin John or Carderock Springs? We provide curbside scrap metal recycling for your large metal items at no charge.  And, we accept both large and small metal items for recycling when you bring them to the Scrap Metal area at our Solid Waste Transfer Station.
