Team up with your neighbors to reduce waste and win a community improvement project installed and maintained by CleanScapes, your garbage and recycling company.
- Pocket park
- Public bench and lighting
- Neighborhood entrance landscaping, sign, lighting
- Neighborhood service day
Every day, approximately 60 tons of garbage are collected in the City of Shoreline and buried in the King County landfill. Roughly 75% of that garbage could have been recycled, or better yet, not created in the first place. Yes, we need to recycle our waste, but there is a better way.
Stop waste before it happens!
- REDUCE purchases of wasteful or unneeded products.
- REUSE the products you already have.
- COMPOST at home.
To win, simply reduce the total tons of waste (garbage, recycling and food scraps and yard debris) you produce. The neighborhood collection area with the largest percent decrease in total tons during the competition period will win. Contest period is Fall 2009 to Spring 2010.
