Liz Pinfield-Wells set up bins on her driveway and told neighbors and friends to drop off waste items not picked up by the town’s recycling program. Since starting the effort in 2019, she has collected nearly 2 tons -- or 4,000 pounds -- of waste that would otherwise likely be sitting in a landfill, floating in a waterway or incinerated. As a volunteer for TerraCycle’s recycling program, she collects and sorts the waste, and the company handles the shipping costs and recycling process.
