RECYCLING YOUR OLD YELLOW PAGES™ DIRECTORIES JUST GOT EASIER

Residents can now recycle outdated directories by placing them in their blue box

With the arrival of the new Yellow Pages™ directories this month, Yellow Pages Group (YPG) encourages residents to recycle their outdated directories. Simply place your old directories – the ones with the Walking Fingers logo – in your blue box and the City of Red Deer will collect them as part of its municipal curb side recycling program.

YPG also offers businesses and organizations that receive more than 50 directories a free-of-charge recycling service for old Yellow Pages™ directories. YPG has contacted these large users directly to arrange recycling. For more information, contact enviro@ypg.com.

YPG continues to work with municipal and provincial bodies, the public and community organizations to maximize the recovery rate of its directories, which are entirely recyclable.
