WEEKLY RECYCLING COST A GREAT DEAL

We told you last week about plans for Maplewood to switch curbside recycling from bi-weekly to weekly in 2015.

The Township Committee on Tuesday approved a contract with Bella Cleaning and Carting of Ridgewood for the service at a cost of $198,000 for the year.

But we didn't know until this weekend what a great deal it is since the current bi-weekly rate is around $160,000 per year, according to Mayor Vic De Luca. 

That means we will get twice the service for just about a 24% increase in cost.
