Training is held at the Ocean County Recycling Education Center, located at the county's Northern Recycling Center in Lakewood Township.
This program is provided free of charge to Ocean County residents and taxpayers. The non-resident fee is $75.00 per person. Non-residents must also complete their outreach commitment within Ocean County.
