The village of Moweaqua is starting biweekly curbside recycle pickup for its residents this year. Advanced Disposal is provides the service for Moweaqua’s residents, and the first pickup was on Tuesday.

Amy Malone is the Assistant to the Village Clerk in Moweaqua and has been working with Advanced to set up the services in town. She says the service is an excellent way to help protect the environment.

Malone says all the information residents need to know is at the village’s website.

Malone says residents can request a 65-gallon roll out recycling cart by calling Advanced Disposal. She says every trash customer in the community will now pay an $18 a month flat trash rate. For those who already participated in residential recycling, Malone says that is a rate decrease, but it is $1.50 rate increase for all other Advanced Disposal customers.
