How to Recycle Newspaper in Xenia, Ohio

Recycling newspaper in Xenia, Ohio is a simple task with a number of different options. For most residents, curbside recycling bins are available free of charge through Rumpke waste and recycling services. Those with an extreme amount of recycling, or who live outside of Rumpke's collection area, can utilize the Green County Environmental Services Recycling Center or Xenia High School's newpaper recycling bin. The high school bin is a collaboration with the Abitibi-Consolidated Recycling Division, which de-inks the newspaper and turns it into a marketable product.
