In an ongoing effort to better serve the needs of the valued industrial and commercial businesses of Miami County, the Miami County Solid Waste District invites you to participate in our annual recycling survey.
The purpose of this statewide survey is to collect data on the amounts and types of materials commercial and industrial businesses recycled in Ohio in 2022. The Miami County Solid Waste District is required to document its recycling efforts in an annual report to Ohio EPA. The District uses the data it receives through surveys to complete that report. By submitting data, your business can help the Miami County Solid Waste District meet its reporting requirements. Your data will also help District track its progress towards meeting local and state recycling goals.
