Special Event Recycling

State and local laws require recycling both at home and away from home. All events and gatherings must provide ways to collect cardboard, aluminum cans & bottles and glass or plastic bottles. Such events include fairs, festivals, concerts, sporting competitions, conventions, reunions, weddings and other gatherings outside of the home.

With a little advance planning, event organizers can arrange to collect recyclables, reduce waste, save on disposal costs and even generate income.
