Select an appropriate collections site with easy access and high visibility. Get any needed permission to use the location. Containers usually take one parking space and consideration should be given to tree and utility wire location. The collection trucks must have room for easy entrance and exit.
Set a collection goal – usually a two-ton minimum per month.
Select a Recycling Coordinator who will promote the program and monitor the container for contaminates and call when pickups are needed.
Promote the program.
