Go Green with the Big Belly Recycling Kiosk

Efficient Recycling Made Simple

Carol Rucker
Lots of people are reducing, reusing and recycling; and to help them with their Green efforts, Big Belly created the Recycling Kiosk. The unit is the companion to the Big Belly Solar Trash Compactor that uses solar power and wireless monitoring to revolutionize garbage handling and collection. The Big Belly Recycling Kiosk is the Solar Trash Compactor's sturdy attractive companion.

The units are designed to stand side by side. Together, they provide a solution to most public trash collection problems. The Big Belly Recycling Kiosk also encourages increased recycling and creates a stream of income that helps make the system more cost efficient.

Putting Recyclables Where They Belong

Public recycling bins are nothing new; but many, such as cardboard containers with plastic liners you see at outdoor events, provide only temporary solutions. The more permanent options include traditional trash cans, perhaps labeled with a recycling logo or simply redecorated with a coat of green paint. Those "recycling bins" are easily mistaken for regular trash cans. While those who are more Green aware may know to pitch in only plastics, paper and aluminum cans; many people add food and other organic wastes. That can make pre-recycling sorting an inefficient process.

The Big Belly Recycling Kiosk addresses those issues with customized openings and clear labeling. The can and bottle-only station has a single round opening that serves as a powerful reminder that only bottles and cans are acceptable. The paper only kiosk has a slot. The dual recycling collector has both a round opening for bottles and cans and a slot for paper.

The recycling units are dark, attractive and clearly labeled with a white universal recycling logo. For those who don't know the triple chasing arrow sign, the openings are also marked with white lettering: "Bottles - Cans - Paper" and "Recycling Only." The companion Big Belly Solar Compactor is similarly marked with a universal "Pitch In" logo, making it easier for trash and recyclables to end up where they belong.

Big Belly Recycling Kiosks Can Be Pretty Too

While the Big Belly's dark look is a perfect fit for most parks and other outdoor venues, if you require more creativity and color you may customize both your recycling kiosk and trash compactor. Optional ad frames allow you to mount the poster of your choice on the side or front panels of your recycling and compactor units.

Provide the artwork and Big Belly can create a customized vinyl decal to mount on the front or side of your companion units. They can also create a bold, colorful vinyl wrap. Big Belly wraps can be customized to cover most of the outside surface area of your companion units. They are similar to those wraps you may have seen on buses or automobiles and they can make your recycling efforts not only efficient but pretty too.

    Did you know, and I'm just saying so don't get mad, that recycling is more expensive and produces more waste than not recycling? I kid you not. Look it up :)
