Countywide polycart service took center stage Thursday night at the Liberty County Commission meeting. John Culbertson, principal at MSW Consultants, presented options for offering the curbside service to rural residents and addressed the associated costs.
"The polycart will capture household refuse, but there are other waste streams," Culbertson said. "We looked at two options. In a full conversion, you're removing the bulk drop-off and household drop-off," and relocating recycling options to third-party or other county-owned sites.
In a hybrid version of service, he said, the recycling drop-off locations would remain, as would bulk centers with reduced hours, while household collection would move curbside.
