More than a dump: How a government contract is changing one Yukon community’s beloved gathering place
Last month, the Yukon government awarded one of the contracts for the Mt. Lorne transfer station to a new contractor not based in the community. The consequence, say some residents, is the potential loss of one of the hamlet’s few gathering places.

Learned a couple things about the #seattle #transferStation:

- They do not take electronics or monitors/TVs. However they do have info about e-cyclers in the area.

- Styrofoam blocks are not recycled, they are just treated as normal garbage. Damn, I've been building a collection for years thinking I was going to keep them all out of a landfill :/

Still had a cathartic decluttering run and got to take some stuff for my neighbor as well.
