The cost to dispose of recycled materials is going up 2.5%
The area four-county solid waste management district will see a slight increase in the disposal of recycled materials.
Gary Merkamp, who is coordinator of the Ross, Pickaway, Highland, Fayette Joint Solid Waste Management District, says they will be paying 2.5% more next year.
Rumpke had requested a 3.5% increase, but the district negotiated that down to 2.5%.
