AT PRo KANSAS, WE ARE MAINTAINING OUR REGULAR HOURS FOR NOW ….
In light of the current Covid-19 situation, PRo Kansas Miller Recycling Center is monitoring events in case it should become necessary to close for awhile. SO FAR, we consider our mode of operation to present minimal hazard considering it is mostly open-air, non-contact activity.
Since there are things which could change overnight and cause us to decide to close, we advise anyone wishing to recycle to please call first to confirm that we are open. The answering machine will tell you what you need to know. The number is (316) 269-1359.
Thanks to you all for your support. We enjoy seeing you at PRo Kansas!

You Can Donate Directly to PRo Kansas Recycling Center
PRo Kansas Recycling Center is the region’s largest and most comprehensive free non-profit recycling facility and has grown in importance to the community over time. In the past year, as more than a half dozen recycling centers in the region have closed their Despite this growth, the Center faces challenges because of major changes in the recycling market. In previous years, income from the sale of recycled materials covered all Center expenses. But China’s exit from much of the recycling market and the current lack of capacity in the U.S. have depressed prices for recycled materials by 50% to 90%. Here’s How You Can Help: ** Click on the DONATE button above to donate directly to PRo Kansas Recycling Center. ** You can donate by mail to: PRo Kansas Recycling, 725 E.
