Around 900 residents have already subscribed to Abilene, Texas’s curbside recycling program. But the city says it needs more people to sign on to make the program viable. The mayor put out a call to get more residents to opt into the service.

The new deadline for subscriptions is Monday, August 8th, at 5:00 p.m. After the subscription period is closed, the City will review the number of subscriptions and decide if they will implement a curbside recycling program.

Mayor Archibald claims that the program would cost nearly $13 a month with the nine hundred subscribers they have now, and they hope to get enough additional subscribers to lower the price down to $5 to $7.
