MESSAGE FROM MAYOR KLING
Let's talk trash...and recycling

We don't often "talk trash," but Monday was "America Recycles Day," and we wanted to take the opportunity to thank the team at Republic Services for their efforts to keep our community clean.

Republic Services continues to make improvements to the services available to Nampa customers:

NEW TRASH CART SIZE OPTIONS // Residential customers will have new cart size and pricing options if interested starting soon. If you're considering changing your cart size, please call Republic Services at (208-467-1020) or place an order online at www.changeyourcart.com (Note: you'll need your account/ billing number from your utility bill). If your current trash and recycling cart sizes fit your needs, no ordering is required! Learn More

NEW GLASS-ONLY RECYCLING DROP SITE // We will now be able to recycle empty, clean and dry glass bottles and jars for free at 3015 E. Comstock (drive slowly through the gates and look for a big container labeled GLASS-ONLY.) See the below flyer for more details.

Thank you again to the Republic Services staff for all they do to keep Nampa clean!

WREATHS ACROSS AMERICA COMING TO NAMPA FOR THE FIRST TIME!
The Nampa Chamber of Commerce and Daughters of American Revolution are hosting a special opportunity for us to honor our veterans this Christmas by purchasing wreaths that will be placed on the graves of Veterans in Nampa at the Kohlerlawn Cemetary.

They just launched this special campaign this week and have nearly 300 wreaths already purchased! Their current goal is 500 wreaths. To sponsor a wreath, click the link below.

More info: Wreaths Across America raises money to provide wreaths to cemeteries to place on Veterans graves. These wreaths are placed during their annual event, simultaneously at Arlington Cemetery and hundreds of cemeteries all over the United States. Wreath Day is December 18 in Nampa's Kohlerlawn Cemetery. There will be a brief ceremony at 10 am, followed by a group of volunteers placing the wreaths on veterans' graves.
