Keep Orlando Beautiful
Event Recycling

KOB attends concerts and other events within Orlando to get our message out and implement recycling.  We strive to keep as many recyclables out of the waste stream as possible. 

In partnership with Anheauser-Busch, City Beverages, and WMMO 98.9, KOB coordinates recycling efforts during the Downtown Concert Series.  To date, we have recycled over a ton in cardboard and plastic beverage containers at this concert series alone.  If you attend, please make sure and look for our recycling containers! 

Tips for Recycling at Your Event:

• Clearly label and distinguish recycling containers and what may be placed in them

• Try to place a recycling bin next to every trash receptacle

• Make sure to place bins at entrances and exits

• Promote that recycling is available

• Have plenty of volunteers or staff onsite to maintain the bins and create awareness

• Utilize local cardboard collection companies as they will actually pay you for the cardboard

KOB is currently researching and developing a program to assist event coordinators with recycling efforts.  We are looking to provide a mobile kit that contains recycling bins, bags, and how to information for event coordinators.  Within the next year, we hope to have the program in place.  Stay tuned!!!  In the meantime, if you need assistance with your event, have ideas to share, or input for the developing program, please call Jody at 407-246-2752 or send an e-mail.
