Wildlands Restoration Volunteers does what its name implies -- they organize groups of volunteers…read moreto do ecological restoration on wild public lands. I've volunteered with WRV for 5 of its 10 years and can honestly say that they have figured-out the magic recipe for providing a truly rewarding volunteer experience, whether it's as simple as a morning spent pulling an invasive weed in Boulder or as intense as a multi-day, high-altitude alpine project where the mission is to repair erosion damage along steep sections of trail. Plus (fellow Yelpers ought to like this), WRV tends to feed its volunteers well on projects. My motto is 'will work for food,' and I'm right at home with WRV.

Great way to help the native flora. We collected seeds from many different wild plants in many…read morelocations within an hours drive. The seeds will be later collected by rubbing the seed heads on screens, so I hear. Then, they will be used to replant native plants in restoration areas. The COVID-19 virus happened during their normal seed cleaning period so I hope they can catch up when all this is done. You either carpool or drive yourself to the location where the seeds have been pre-scouted, then wander and stoop to pluck the seed heads. WRV offers snacks like granola bars, cheese sticks, fruit and soda/sparkling water with essences. The typical time out of your day might be 4 hours... 9-1 usually, plus short nature hikes with expert guides, and they also offer full day and camping/working trips. They are organized through Boulder County (I forgot the last part of the name) on St. Vrain Rd. You can get more information off the web by looking for Wildlands Resources Volunteers. You can subscribe to them and you'll get lists of types of help needed, dates and times and can register from there. Many of the volunteers have worked with them for many, many years. Registration may be limited so sign up as fast as you can and there is a waiting list so if you can't make it, let them know.

This review is specifically for the CHaRM (Center for Hard to Recycle Materials) center that we…read morevisited today but I have used other parts of their system in the past too. We had several pieces of tech accessories to dispose of, outdated and mostly not working either. They were taking up space we needed to clear. We took them out to this facility, near several other facilities they operate. Good website with lots of directions and maps and fee scale. It was easy to find, followed directions out there and turned out to be easier than expected, early on a weekday. There is a fee for entering but only $3.00 and it is added to your bill if you have to pay any fees for what you bring in. We took several pieces for which there was a fee but it is very reasonable at $0.59 per pound and they do not weigh any of the accessory cables. Our pile of an old printer, a flat bed scanner and a wireless router came to only 24 pounds. We will be back another time with a few things that need their hard drives erased beforehand and I believe most of these devices are free to recycle. I will also use the Hazardous Household Recycle location again which I have used more frequently in the past for old paints and yard and household chemicals that are outdated, etc. That location is a block north of this one. It's nice to have a local community facility that will responsibly dispose of these objects. They also provide an option for bulk items, like cardboard, block rigid foam, scrap metal etc. A lot of those are free also. I suspect they are pretty busy on Saturdays and they are not open on Sundays. Better than sending this stuff to a landfill and will accommodate things than cannot go out in curbside residential recycling. We have done the curbside for decades, as long as it has existed in Boulder.

I'm a huge fan of Eco-Cycle and all they do to support our beautiful community. From recycling and…read morecomposting to presence at local events they always have their best foot forward. I've actually had the pleasure to be on the "green team" at Hanuman Yoga Festival for a couple of years as a volunteer. They educated us in a helpful and encouraging way so we could assist event attendees in properly compost, recycle, and discard with care. Contained within it's substantial walls is CHaRM (Center for Hard-to -recycle materials). Here you can properly hand off anything from a fax machine, to paint, to a yoga mat! The cost is often determined by weight so you can feel good letting go of those challenging items without breaking the bank or feeling bad putting it in the regular garbage. Every interaction I have had at their facility or volunteering under their guidance has been a pleasure. I look forward to doing some spring cleaning and visiting Eco-Cycle with items that aren't quite fit for donation.

During a time while my car is out of service, I have had the opportunity to experience Via. I…read morehad first heard about Via in the weeks after the flood in September. They were offering free rides for people who had lost their cars in the flood, which was very generous and community-minded. I have only had 3 or 4 rides with Via so far. They have been on time to pick me up which I have appreciated. The office people who answer the telephones and schedule rides are very efficient and detail oriented. The drivers are pretty routine and protocol-focused. I would appreciate a bit more flexibility about being able to get in and out of the car without any help. I do understand they are required to help riders get in and out of their vehicles. This Via service has been a real Godsend for me recently and the cost is very reasonable.

Hunter was the only one to say he'd come out and look at it and eventually do the repairs. He even showed me how to moderate a couple things I didn't know about. He is professional, trustworthy, polite and an ease to work with. And, since he also does work on vehicles (pother than RV's) I've found my new go-to mechanic. I highly recommend this business for any RV repairs, especially those bigger and older rigs no one will look at. Amazing work, you won't be disappointed.
