The Huntsville Firefighter’s Association (HFA) annual metal recycling fundraiser is underway.
“What people can do is drop off any metal they have kicking around their place,” explains firefighter Shawn Dickey. The place to go is the Huntsville Fire Hall at 1 Payne Drive. You will be able to drop off unused metal until so long as no snow is on the ground. He asks that you only put things like old BBQs or other kinds of unused scrap metal, not garbage.
Here’s how it works: HFA officials collect the metal, ACES Waste Management – who also donated the bin – take it to a recycling plant, and the money made goes to the association. Dickey says last year they raised just under $1,000.
