Orlando Adds Aerosol Cans to Curbside Recycling Program

As part of a major initiative in 2008, the Steel Recycling Institute (SRI) has been targeting the 15 top 100 populated cities that do not accept aerosol cans to change their programs so that these containers can be recycled alongside steel food cans.

The 2008 objective was to convince eight of these cities to change their program and accept aerosol cans. Orlando, Fla. became the sixth city this year to agree to integrate aerosol cans into their curbside recycling program. SRI continues to target the remaining cities and is extremely optimistic that this objective will be met by year end. For more information, contact Suzette Thomason.
