South Carolina’s state parks want you to come out and play.
The parks also want you to come out and recycle.
South Carolina offers recycling opportunities to visitors at each of its 47 state parks and historic sites. The recycling program targets plastic bottles and aluminum cans – look for these containers – but encourages visitors to collect additional recyclables and take them home.
- Other green tips for visitors include:
- Pack your food in reusable containers to minimize package waste.
- Bring reusable bottles or other refillable containers instead of bottled water. Fill your reusable water bottle at home or a campground source.
- Bring reusable plates and silverware.
The recycling program is offered in partnership by the S.C. Department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism and DHEC.
