Collapsible Recycling Bin Service
Save money and the environment! These bins are easy to use and transport (they break down to the size of a folding chair). They are designed to collect commingled containers (glass and plastic bottles, aluminum cans, etc.).
For no charge, you can reserve bins, pick them up at Eco-Cycle's CHaRM, use them at your event, deliver the recyclables to the nearest recycling center, and return the bins to the CHaRM.
If the bins are returned full of recyclables, soiled, broken, or if they are not returned at all, you will be billed $50 per bin.
Bags are offered for $1.50 per bag and can be paid for when the bins are picked up at CHaRM. (We recommend approximately one bin for every 25 people.) These are heavyweight plastic bags with "Recycle" printed on them. If you want to provide your own, the bags should be clear and measure 45" x 48" (usually 45-gallon or larger bags will work). Clear bags allow participants to see the recyclables and prevent contamination.
Collapsible recycling bins are made available by the generosity of the city of Boulder. The bins are manufactured by ClearTainers.
