Craven County ends curbside recycling due to rising costs
Craven County Commissioners voted to end curbside recycling effective June 28 as costs rise and the Waste Industries contract faces higher prices. The measure affects all residents in Craven County and municipalities under the consolidated program. County Manager Jack Veit cited market demand for recyclables and declining buyer interest as the reason for the price increase and service termination. Commissioner Dennis Bucher emphasized the public should understand the business pressures on recycling providers.
