Recycling Reward Pilot Program


 


In an effort to further increase residential recycling, the City of Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation is partnering with RecycleBank to offer Angelenos an incentive program that rewards residents for Blue Bin recycling. The program, which is being made available without charge as a pilot to 15,000 single family homes along selected routes in the West Valley and North Central sections of the city, is designed to increase recycling rates and put meaningful savings in the pockets of participating residents.

The goal of the pilot program, which is expected to run for 12-24 months, is to elevate environmental stewardship, personal responsibility and volunteer action in recycling on a community wide basis. In fact, the more a community recycles, the more points they can earn. Points can be redeemed for rewards, discounts, groceries, gift cards, restaurants, school supplies and so much more!

Residents in the pilot areas must sign up for their personal RecycleBank account, either online or by phone, to begin earning their reward points. Reward points will be earned on a community weight based approach with points and rewards shared equally with participating households on each collection route. Once a RecycleBank member, program participants can redeem their points online at www.RecycleBank.com, where they can also learn about their personal environmental footprint through recycling. Participants can also access their account information by calling the toll free RecycleBank Customer Care Center, 1 (888) 727-2978.
