If you've still got political signs in your yard, there's a drive for that. The Missouri Botanical Garden, Republic Services and have 21 drop-off sites across the bi-state area, and the drive runs this week and next.

Keep them out of your curbside bin. The corrugated plastic and metal frames are recyclable, just not that way, because they can jam sorting equipment.

  • Before you go: separate each sign from its frame

This year's drive has 21 sites; a similar 2024 drive diverted 4,000 pounds

I have a power scooter (and the operating booklet) that has a dead battery and a flat tire.

“I have tried every disability group including St. Louis help who says they don’t do power scooters - and nobody wants it. I am gobsmacked. It’s free to whomever will remove it from my garage.”
