the community. CHaRM diverts 25+ types of hard -to -recycle materials from the landfill, including scrap <br />metal, appliances, mattresses, bicycles and glassware. <br />For this type of event, City staff would work with Eco-Cycle to determine an event date. Outreach to the <br />neighborhood would be conducted by city staff and the sustainability advisory board. Residents in the <br />neighborhood would receive a list of items they're able to recycle at the event. Eco-Cycle and city staff <br />set up drop off locations at a common space in the neighborhood for different types of recyclable items <br />— bicycles, appliances, electronics/cords, mattresses, etc. During the event, residents are able to bring <br />unwanted items to the drop off locations in the neighborhood for recycling. A moving company with a <br />box truck will be available in the neighborhood to assist residents with physical mobility challenges in <br />loading items from inside residences to the drop off locations. Additionally, a trash roll off will be on site <br />for items that cannot be recycled. Materials collected at the event will be recycled at the Center for <br />Hard to Recycle Materials. <br />Estimated Event Costs <br />Description <br />Estimated Cost <br />Eco-Cycle staff time <br />$1,000 - $2,000 <br />Eco-Cycle large item recycling costs at <br />CHaRM <br />$800 - $2,000 <br />Moving company to haul materials <br />$1,000 <br />Roll off for trash collection <br />$300 <br />Tire recycling <br />$200 <br />Propane tank recycling <br />$200 <br />TOTAL <br />$3,500 - $5,700 <br />Reusable Bag Giveaway <br />In addition to the hard -to -recycle community events, reusable bags can be given away at LMI <br />community events, ensuring that community members have access to reusable bags and can avoid <br />paying the disposable bag tax. <br />Marketing and Outreach <br />New marketing and outreach will need to be conducted to the Louisville business community to educate <br />them about the waste reduction programs available.
