Recycling Infrastructure

Our recycling infrastructure consists of:

  • Many (under 10) 5 gallon buckets
  • Many (under 10) 55 gallon barrels
  • Outdoor platform, 3' by 15'

Designation System

  • The buckets and barrels are designated as necessary (ex. if compost collection rate is high, 2 or more buckets may be designated) to:

Paper

Organic

Glass

Steel

Aluminum

Plastic

Trash

Action System

  • The buckets are organized inside the residential space such that discarded materials are easily transported to the designated buckets.
  • Full buckets are unloaded into the barrels.

Our recycling infrastructure consists of multiple 5-gallon buckets for storing different types of used items (ex. paper, plastic, glass, metal, organic).

When a 5-gallon bucket is filled up, its contents are moved to a larger storage vessel. An area is designated for multiple large storage containers each for storing different types of used items.

When a large storage container is filled up, its contents are transported either to an even larger storage system or recycled through various processes.
