Recycler of the Month - Hazel Sox

 
Hazel Sox is the City of Hartsville’s Recycler of the Month for November.
 
She has been recycling since service began, and said working to keep material out of a landfill and to help protect natural resources has come naturally. Her recycling bin, she said, now frequently fills up more than her trash roll cart.
“It’s amazing to see, by recycling, how much smaller your trash bag is every week, how much it has gone down,” Sox said.
The Recycler of the Month award provided Sox with a $25 gift card to Ruth’s Drive In, 659 W. Carolina Ave., as well as a real-estate-style sign announcing the award.
The award program is part of an effort to promote the recycling partnership of Sonoco and the City of Hartsville. Next month, the City will choose another winner.
