• A Mainer's guide to a greener holiday cleanup (pressherald.com) — If you’re clearing out holiday decorations in Kittery, you can drop old string lights at We Fill Good, which serves as a local collection point instead of using curbside recycling. The broader guide explains how Mainers can safely recycle trees, wrapping paper, food scraps, and batteries to cut down on post-holiday waste and protect workers and the environment.
