Amount of Recyclables Processed

The graph and table below show the same data: The number of tons of recyclables (from sources within Larimer County) that were processed over the years at the Larimer County Recycling Center. The increase in 2006 from the previous year is partially attributable to the late 2005 switch to single-stream recycling.
