Danville seeks more collection sites for recyclable refuse

DANVILLE – Joyce Guymon has been recycling for years and drives from her home in northeast Danville to drop off newspapers, glass and magazines on her way to the post office or other errands in downtown Danville, as she did Thursday afternoon.

She was one of more than a dozen people who dropped off materials at the Vermilion County recycling site on East Main Street during the span of one hour Thursday.

Public Works Director Doug Ahrens said the plan is to get at least two more sites operational during the winter months.
