As you may know, greenerMIAMI has tried to make it a priority to provide our readers with options on how to get rid of their junk and trash in the right way. That means donating items that could still be useful to others, recycling materials that can be used to create new products, and properly disposing of potentially toxic materials.
Well, it looks like greenerMIAMI isn’t the only one trying to make it easier for Miamians to do the right thing! Miami Beach 411 has created it’s own set of resources for recycling & disposal.
What’s really a cool tool, and one that I’m excited they took the time to create, is a Miami Recycling Map, a Google API with various recycling, donation, and disposal locations shown directly on the map.
They’ve also created a Recycling section, with links to other local resources for recycling, including our own page and Miami Dade Solid Waste. Also available en español. Check it out, and think about what (and where) you are going to toss before you toss it!

When I was in NYC, they had these recycling stations that I thought were the neatest things. They were like ATM machines that would take your aluminums and plastics and would give you cash back for the stuff you recycled. Of course, it’s a hit with the homeless, but if it helps clean up the place then it’s a great idea!
We leave at THE COSMOPOLITAN CONDO on South Beach. We are owner there and they refused to have any recycling boxes. It’s extremely frustrating!
Thought I would share that with all of you…
