Webinar ID: 115-528-659<span style="color:#2F2F2F"><br>
<br>
This webinar builds on previous webinars where we discussed how to recycle right with tactics and tools to improve residential recycling. This webinar will take a look at how to effectively minimize contamination in the recycling stream.<br>
<br>
Join us to hear what needs to be done to clean up your recycling from a private recycling company, a municipal district and a state regulator. We all know the importance of developing a clean recycling product for the end markets, but the quality of the end
product is dependent on the quality of the recycling stream arriving from businesses and households. With more materials allowed in the recycling container, confusion has increased. Learn what can be done to reduce the contamination and developing winning
strategies that will leave everyone happy<b> </b></span></span><br>
