Recycling drop-off sites in Jacksonville closed Thursday night for good as the city prepares to bring back curbside services next week. But Clay County could keep the drop-off sites for a couple more years.
During this month’s county commission meeting, a representative for Waste Management explained the company is still struggling to recruit and retain staff.The contractor needs a total of 42 employees to bring back curbside recycling, but only has a total of 27.Within two weeks, the county reported they were back on track with yard waste pickup, and have remained that way through March.
The company has a $10,000 hiring bonus, compared to Jacksonville’s $5,000 bonus. However, a representative said the farther commute to the center in Green Cove Springs makes it difficult to recruit.The first option is keeping recycling drop-off sites until they are fully staffed, which could be several more months.
Finally, the county is looking at automating its curbside service. In Jacksonville, the trucks are designed so they only need a driver. Clay trucks require a driver and helper.
