I thought it might be cool to see where and how we're using the decals, and to see if there are opportunities for other sizes, etc. There are a lot of good positions and containers... I'm really liking inside the dump tote on the non-dump side for our office waste. .
I started putting some out. People are already commenting! I have 3 machines who have asked for a new can to designate for hard plastic recycle stuff so they don't put them in the trash cans any more. These particular machines have been an on-going problem area, having to constantly remind them to recycle the hard plastics. Now they are asking for a new can! First small victory!
Those look great, Deb... very glad to hear that people are commenting and asking for new recycling cans in their area. Would be very interested to hear back after a couple months as to how things are working with your program... sounds like you're getting off to a solid start!
Hi Everyone, Andy was kind enough to get a bunch of stickers to me, and I decided to begin using them first in our corporate office. Here's a shot of it being used, along with our compost and plastic recycling bins too.
Looks great, Bill! We designed that decal just for your model of can haha. We've had some really good feedback on users, and starting the decal program was founded in some pretty great research on recycling behavior... Damaged Goods: How our brains can sabotage recycling programs I'm going to pick up on the compost discussion over in the other post... very interested in your experiences so far... hopping over to Discussion on Starting a Composting Program (LINK)
