A combined $2.8 million grant from The Recycling Partnership and the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC), with special support from beauty brand Love Beauty and Planet, will more than double the frequency of recycling collection in Nashville and Davidson County, Tenn., to every other week from once a month.
The Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County (Metro Nashville) will use the grant to buy 16 collection vehicles and provide 8,000 additional recycling carts to households, allowing them to access curbside recycling services.
