Louisville Public Works’ Recycle Right team members are out and about to have a look at your recycing. If you see someone in a high vis vest checking out your bins, don’t be alarmed. They’ll leave behind a tag — think of it like a re-cycling re-port card. Here’s what the different tags mean:
Green means your bin has no visible contaminants.
Yellow means you have some work to do — a small amount of contaminants were found in your bin.
Red means your bin was very contaminated and won’t be collected.
Have a look at the list of contaminants — we’re talking plastic bags, food, and hazardous waste — to keep your bin clean and go for the green.

We’ve all been there: You’re leaving a show or wrapping up a night on the town, and the midnight munchies hit. But it seems the lights are off and the grills are cold at all your favorite restaurants.
Well, that’s not quite true — because there are spots across Louisville that cater to nighttime eaters craving pizza, burgers, or fried chicken. Save this list for the next time you’ve got an after-hours craving.

I love bringing you fun news and events all over Louisville, but sometimes we all have to do things that aren’t so fun — like going to the dentist.
Fortunately, I’m happy to continue keeping it local and recommend Modern Family Dentistry on Frankfort Avenue. It’s a small, two-person operation that has made me not hate getting my teeth cleaned on the regular. If you’ve been meaning to make an appointment, consider this your sign.
