(Linn County, IA) -- A local recycling agency is clarifying what they can and can't take in as the holidays approach.
The Cedar Rapids Linn County Solid Waste Agency says they only accept boxes that are empty, dry, and flattened at the Resource Recovery Center in Marion.
Agency officials say boxes they've found with non-recyclable items like styrofoam, bubble wrap, and batteries in them can cause fires, jam up machinery, and put staff at risk.
