Hmm... that's what DH said until we got a listing from the city of recycle-ables. It specifically listed phone books as acceptable.
Is this his birthday present???;)

Cardboard & Paperboard
Cereal & Cracker Boxes
Milk, Juice & Soup Cartons
Newspapers &...

They used to deliver them here (twice a year :facepalm2:) but after reading your post it dawned on me that they haven't done that the last couple of years. Knock wood.

I don't think we've had them dropped off in a couple of years either. I think this is a different company that printed them in the past, so I guess they think people will actually use them. :crazy:
