What to do with that pile of old phone books… If you’re like me, you prefer to recycle phone books as soon as they appear. After all, how is a static book more convenient than the always bustling internet. A simple Google search yields much more than a phone book can. But if you are still a hard-copy user, you still need to dispose of out-of-date phone books.
Here’s How to Recycle Them:
Many shopping centers have phone book recycling drops this time of year, but act soon because these don’t last long. At the Hancock Center (41st and Red River with the HEB), look for a dumpster near Freebirds. If the Randalls on 38th Street is more convenient, check the southwest corner of the parking lot. If the chance of these bins not being available at these or other grocery stores is too much of a gamble, Ecology Austin (Austin’s Downtown Recycling Center) will take phone books at their location on the southbound access road of IH-35 at 9th Street. Drop-off bins are available. Your Green Realtor,
