TerraCycle Include USA Cigarette Recycling Program
Germain said Friday that the cigarette butts will be collected every seven days from the receptacles and sent to TerraCycle, a Trenton, New Jersey-based recycling company that will use them to make new products like benches and tables. "It's the first municipal cigarette recycling program on Long Island," Germain said as she stood next to a receptacle recently installed at a Port Washington bus stop.
