A Christmas morning full of presents can leave behind of mess of paper and recyclables. Dozens of people hit the Mobile Recycling Drop-Off Center to try and make the best of their post-holiday mess. People were tearing down empty boxes and sorting ripped scraps of wrapping paper. Members of Keep Mobile Beautiful say the day after Christmas and Saturdays are normally busy days. Put them together and you've got a rush of Recyclers. Tear-able wrapping paper can be recycled. Some kinds of wrapping paper with plastic coatings cannot. The drop-off facility on Government Street is open seven days a week 8 am to 5 pm.
