Mamie Kelley is the City of Hartsville’s Recycler of the Month for November 2015.
She said she has been careful to recycle items for a long time, especially plastic bottles and paper, and keeps a bucket in her kitchen to collect recyclables until she’s ready to move them to her outside roll cart.
“It’s very easy to carry it out in a bag, and it helps keep things clean around your house,” Kelley said.
As the Recycler of the Month, Kelley received a yard sign as well as a gift certificate to Shoney’s Restaurant, 905 S. Fifth St. 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.
