Event Recycling
Recycling is required at all events. Recycle right at your next festival, party or event.
Recycling at household parties
From graduation parties to barbeques, make sure to provide recycling containers for your guests to recycle these materials.
- Make recycling easy: Put a recycling container next to each trash container. Use any kind of container to collect recycling or borrow one for free.
- Label your containers: Labels help your guests know what to recycle. Print and attach container labels to your recycling and trash containers. Download or print Event Container Signs (8.5" x 11").
- Recycle what you collect: Use your own home recycling service or drop-off your recyclables at the Recycling Zone.
Borrow free recycling containers
Dakota County residents, schools and businesses can borrow containers for free. Event recycling containers fold down for easy transport and come with bags and signs.
Contact your city recycling coordinator to borrow containers.
