Courtney Comstock is the director of Litter Landing. She says they also don’t accept plastic grocery bags, which end up blowing out of the facility and into the Blanchard River.

Litter Landing accepts plastic types 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7. They don’t take plastic types 4 and 6. You can check and items’ recycling logo to see its plastic type.

Comstock says you can pick up an application at Litter Landing on East Sandusky Street.

She adds that while they do get community service referrals from the court, they need a consistent staff of full-time and part-time workers to sort recyclable items at the facility.
