McCoy, who has made use of her recycling bin for as long as she has had it, said she enjoys knowing that sorted recycling materials will be used again and not simply thrown out.
“It saves on trash bags,” said Doris Flemming, McCoy’s daughter, seen at left. “All you have to do is put your bottles, papers and cans out in the bin.”
As the Recyclers of the Month, the family received a yard sign as well as a gift certificate to Ruth’s Drive-In, located at 659 W. Carolina Ave. in Hartsville.
The award program highlights those city residents participating in the City of Hartsville’s recycling program, a partnership between the City and Sonoco.
