Recycling
The Village of Allen, with the help of Northeast Nebraska Economic Development District, recently received a new recycling trailer through a grant process. The Village has also switched to a new recycling processor called Laurel Regional Recycling Center located in Laurel, NE. If you have any questions or concerns about the recycling process you may contact Lathan Asbra at 402-256-3155.
There is no handling fee imposed on the Village of Allen to process our recycled material but there are set rules that must be followed otherwise the recycled material can not be accepted.
