I believe each county has a list of drop off locations, I found some for Jefferson County, Larimer County, etc. but I haven't found an entire list @Arjayellis @ExperimentsInHonesty

@aNullValue the data for this is as good as we can have it however we don't have a list of drop off locations for all counties, let me know how you want us to proceed.

@kcoronel If it's as good as we can get it for now, go ahead and send it to ready-for-import and I'll get it imported.
