Large recycling containersallow the bins to be
emptied much less often, obviouslythis means less manpower/womanpower

foldable, lightweight, compact
and the contents are obvious to
potential recyclers. Less contaminationif people can see
recyclables inside.
Wind or lack of space?

than 45 feet apart. 2. All waste containers must have a recycling
container adjacent to it.

Many of your vendors will be using
oil for cooking. Collect it

Food waste can be compostedand converted into a richfertilizer/soil. Consider
composting. It’s the most natural form
of recycling.
