America Recycles Day - November 15

On November 15 of each year, millions of people become better informed about the importance of recycling as a result of the national America Recycles Day campaign.

“It All Comes Back To You”

The America Recycles Day slogan says it all. When we recycle and buy products made of recycled material, “it all comes back to you.” In a very practical way we can all help to improve our economy and conserve our energy and resources.

In the City of Fort Lauderdale, we have been making great strides in the area of recycling. But we could do more.

Take the Pledge

Take the pledge to recycle and you will be joining others within our City and across the nation who are committed to the reduction, reuse, recycling, and responsible disposal of resources.

It takes an individual effort to effect sweeping change. Your commitment to this pledge and your support of recycling will have far greater impact and importance than you may realize.

Share Your Stories

If you are a City of Fort Lauderdale business, neighborhood or school that has a recycling success story that you’d like to share, e-mail us at recycle@fortlauderdale.gov. We will accept success stories through the end of November and share the best on our website!
