IT’S NEVER BIN EASIER…TO RECYCLE!
Need beverage container recycling bins for your local park, school, office or special event? We can help.
The Coca-Cola/NRC Recycling Bin Grant Program supports local community recycling programs by providing selected grant recipients with containers for the collection of beverage container recyclables in public settings. Selected grant recipients will receive actual recycling bins instead of funding.
WHY BINS?
Because NRC and Coca-Cola are able to leverage their purchasing power to provide more recycling bins than would be possible if grantees were to use monetary grants to purchase independently.
By taking care of the bin purchases internally, our program allows you to better spend your time designing and implementing recycling programs.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The program offers recycling bins designed for use in various settings - special events, general utility and prestige locations.
Apply on-line and describe your program needs, request your preferred bin type, and tell us how many you would like to receive.
After grant recipients are selected, NRC will contact grantees to offer guidance, confirm their needs, and bin selection. Then, our suppliers will deliver bins directly to the recipients.
WHO CAN APPLY?
The grant program is open to government, civic, school, non-profit groups, and for-profit companies.
Eligible activities include but are not limited to establishing or enhancing a recycling collection program. This includes the use of specialized containers at community events or functions, public facilities, and programs or events conducted by applicants. The bins must be intended for use in one of four types of settings:
Education (K-12 and universities)
Sports (parks and sport venues)
Culture (music and arts)
Commercial (office and facilities)
WHEN TO APPLY?
Grants are available twice a year in the Spring and Fall. The Spring 2008 application period is now closed. Recipients will be announced on Earthday, April 22nd. For more information about the grant program, visit the program website at http://www.bingrant.org or call (843) 278-7686.
