The materials were collected through 22 public drop-off sites throughout the county, though the total represents a slight decrease from previous years after one site was removed. Cardboard was the most common item recycled, with residents encouraged to flatten boxes to save space. The program recently expanded to accept plastic "clamshell" containers and various cups, maintaining a low contamination rate of 5-6%. The recycling program is funded by the CFLP Solid Waste District and the Licking County Board of Commissioners.
