Dell Gandy is the City of Hartsville’s Recycler of the Month for October 2014.
She said she has been recycling for a long time, always sorting out any plastic bottles, boxes and packaging which can be recycled, and keeps a bag of recyclables in her kitchen to periodically empty into her roll cart.
“I enjoy recycling because I know it benefits our community, the environment and the planet,” she said. “I also feel it is our civic responsibility.”
As the Recycler of the Month, Gandy received a yard sign as well as a gift certificate to the Midnight Rooster Coffee Shop & Eatery, 136 E. Carolina Ave. in Hartsville.
The award program highlights those city residents participating in the City of Hartsville’s recycling program, a partnership between the City and Sonoco.
