"Boiseans frequently tell us that they want to recycle more," said Peter McCullough, program manager for City of Boise Materials Management, in a press release. "We appreciate Republic Services' investment in our local recycling center, which will keep these plastics out of our local landfill and recycle them domestically into new products."
