Is Chicago Throwing Away $1 Million on Recycling Carts?
(Chicago Sun Times) — Thousands of blue recycling carts — with a pricetag of nearly $1 million — are stashed away in a Far South Side warehouse because City Hall bought them to make the citywide switch to curbside recycling, but ran out of money one-third of the way through. The Daley administration acknowledged having a stockpile of “roughly 22,000 carts” at a cost of $45-per-container.
