On today's WVIK News Focus, Michelle O'Neill talks with the commission's director, Kathy Morris who's thrilled with the new, "Go All In" system.
In addition, residents of Scott and Rock Island counties no longer have to make appointments to drop off hazardous waste. They can take hazardous materials to the recycling center during regular business hours. They can take old electronics to be de-manufactured, too.
