DALTON, Ga. — By the year’s end, city residents will have recycled more than 1,000 tons of household waste.
It’s the most the city has collected in one year with its curbside recycling program, which started in 2003, said Harvey Levitt, operations manager for the Dalton-Whitfield Solid Waste Management Authority.
City Public Works Director Benny Dunn said the number is up this year because “we’ve just got more folks” recycling.

DALTON, Ga. -- Recycling is the environmentally friendly way to bid farewell to the family Christmas tree, officials say.
"Bring One for the Chipper" is a statewide program sponsored by Keep Georgia Beautiful. Locations are designated throughout the state for people to recycle their Christmas trees, turning them into mulch.
Keep Dalton-Whitfield Beautiful and the Dalton-Whitfield Solid Waste Authority head up the program here.
"We are providing the service so that people can close the loop," said Liz Swafford, recycling and education program coordinator for the solid waste authority.
