Incentives for Recycling
Are you on the fence about recycling? Maybe these incentives will convince you to do it!
In some towns, they’ve developed different programs to encourage people to recycle . For example, some weigh the recycling bins when they pick them up. The weight of the recycling bin is then calculated each week and added up to a monthly total. At the end of the month, you’re rewarded based on your overall monthly recycling weight!
Some towns have partnered with companies and businesses and will provide gift certificates in exchange for your recycling efforts.
Studies on towns like these have found a 90% increase in recycling! So if this is the little push that you need, inquire about incentives in your own town!
