It looks my two most convenient spots are 20 and 22. Ironically, my two closest recycling sites sites are at rivaling grocery stores: Russ's Market at 33rd & Highway 2 and Super Saver at 27th & Pine Lake Road. Where's Hy-Vee's recycling site? Although Hy-Vee has done its fair share of sustainability work.
Hy-Vee recently opened a new location in a new state. The Madison, Wisconsin store is designed to attain LEED certification (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). LEED is the nationally accepted standard for the design, construction and operation of green buildings.
All Hy-Vees, or at least all the locations I have been in, also have plastic bag recycling available in these handy green bins right by the entrance:
Looks like I've got a drop off of plastic bags to make. Not all of my plastic bags can fit into my dispenser. I've also got to take all the crap that has been piling up in my corner to recycling. It's getting pretty bad.
