Residents can recycle more than they ever imagined using the new “Recycle Today” 2011 Pinellas County Recycling Directory. The 22-page directory is packed with the latest information about how to recycle in Pinellas County. The directory includes options for recycling cans, bottles, paper, yard waste, electronics, chemicals, motor oil, cooking oil and much more.

Copies of the new directory will be available in local newspapers. The directory will be distributed in the Sunday, Jan. 16, edition of the St. Petersburg Times and The Tampa Tribune (with the inserts) and in the Thursday, Jan. 20, edition of The Weekly Challenger. Also, after Jan. 17, citizens can pick up a free copy at local libraries, Sweetbay stores, Nature’s Food Patch Market or Pinellas County drop-off recycling centers. The directory may be viewed online at www.pinellascounty.org/recycle.

• How to participate in recycling programs offered in the 24 municipalities plus the unincorporated areas of Pinellas County
