Indoor Recycling Center

An example of the "Box Cycle Triple" using clear containers to help ensure the correct items are placed in the correct bin.  The waste container in the middle isn't clear so you don't have to see the trash.

Recycling Center Without Carts or Bins

The Quick Bin System one of the most innovative solutions.  Uses a unique continuous liner (360 feet) pulls down for relining.  Users don't have any contact with waste & bacteria when emptying bin.  Able to seal, empty and re-line in 20-30 seconds.  Eliminates overflowing carts/bins. Bags can be different colors to help drive separation of waste.  For those who have had kids in the past 20 years - Diaper Jeanie meets trash.  Could potentially be a game changer in waste handling.
