Cities partner to offer low cost rain barrels


The City of Oklahoma City, Yukon, Midwest City and the Central Oklahoma
Storm Water Alliance (COSWA) are partnering to encourage residents to
conserve water and reduce pollution through the use of rain barrels.

 

The discounted rain barrels are offered online at www.upcycle-products.com
starting at $61 plus $2.50 online handling fee. Click on the right side of
the web page and choose West Metro/Yukon.

 

"Rain barrels are a way for homeowners to save money by saving water,"
Oklahoma City's Environmental Protection Manager Raymond Melton said. "Not
only can they use the water collected in the rain barrel to water their
gardens, they are also actively helping the environment by reducing
pollution in local streams and rivers." 

 

Rain barrels ordered online can be picked up from noon - 4 p.m. on July 18
or 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. on July 19 at 1035 Industrial Drive in Yukon. 

 

Future rain barrel pick up events will take place in Midwest City in October
2014 and Oklahoma City in March 2015.

 

Bring your online order confirmation to the pickup event. For more
information about this special event contact Kacie Horton at 297-1774.
