Alice Wingate is the City of Hartsville’s Recycler of the Month for February.
She said she has been recycling for as long as service has been available, always taking care to sort papers, plastic, glass and more out of her trash to keep these materials out of landfills.
The Recycler of the Month award provided Wingate with a $25 gift card to the Midnight Rooster Coffee Shop, Courtyard and Eatery, found at 136 E. Carolina Ave. in Hartsville, 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.
