It Ain't Easy Being Green

It REALLY ain't!!! The recycling program in my community was discontinued (a story in and of itself) about 8 months ago. I have been trying ever since to find a place that will accept residential recyclables, to no avail. I've called cities, counties, visited web sites and I'm truly shocked at just how difficult it is, in the year 2007, to recycle. I am willing to drive my stuff to most anywhere in Broward County. Please let me know if you know of a place that will take one or all of the following: newspapers, plastic containers, cans, and cardboard. Thanks.
