Recycling of Paper Products:
Please note, due to the Lexington Recycling Center temporarily suspending the recycling of paper, City of Versailles residents are being asked to not put paper items in with their recycling until further notice.
Paper that is put in recycling will be routed to the landfill from the Recycling Center. This policy is expected to last several months. Residents are encouraged to continue to recycle dry corrugated cardboard, plastic screw-top bottles and jugs, clean glass bottles and jars, and clean aluminum and steel cans.
The City of Versailles and its contracted trash hauler, Central Kentucky Hauling, belong to a group comprised of several area cities and counties that utilize the Lexington Recycling Center. The Lexington Recycling Center is pursuing new outlets that will accept all paper products.
