Community Recology Recycling & Education Tour
Join your neighbors for a tour of the Recology Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) and see what happens to the materials you place in your curbside recycling bin!
Come take a tour of Recology's state-of-the-art facility in South Seattle facility to learn about how your paper, plastics, and more are sorted and recycled, to get a better understanding of how your recycling habits impact the process.
Individuals sixteen years of age or older are invited to tour the sorting line, where they will hear, see, and smell materials as they travel through a series of conveyor belts and high-tech machines. Groups with younger children may visit the facility to experience the recycling center from a bird’s eye view in the safety of Recology's education room.
