Zero Waste Party Bins

Hey neighbors! Parkwood East has two No Waste Bins that provide a total of 50 reusable dishes, cups and silverware for you to borrow for your gatherings. This is a partnership with the global Party Kit Network and the local FoCo Trash Mob! It’s easy to reduce your use of SUPs (single use plastics) that get thrown away, but really never go away. They just break down into microplastics that pollute soil, water, air and eventually end up in our bodies!
To borrow the bins, please go HERE and reserve it at least two days before your event. There is a $30 deposit, of which $25 is reimbursed when items are returned in the same condition they were picked up. If you would like FoCo Trash Mob to clean the items, we will keep the $30 as a donation. FYI: over a million SUPs have been avoided so far!
