Owner Larry Lang wanted to help out the family in memory of his brother, who passed away from aggressive lung cancer at 19. While he does not know the family personally, he had the opportunity to meet them at a fundraiser for Morgan and decided to do his own part in assisting with their medical expenses.
There is no limit on the number of pounds of batteries or aluminum cans, which are best brought pre-crushed in a plastic bag without any other materials, like tin cans. Cans can be dropped off at 1st Choice Recycling anytime during business hours between 8-5 p.m. Monday through Friday, or 8 a.m. – Noon on Saturday. 1st Choice Recycling is located at 504 E. Willow Drive. For information or details, give First Choice Recycling a call at 715-659-4340 during hours of operation.
