How to Plan a Waste-Free Event<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Choose reusable plates, utensils, cups and packaging whenever possible.<\/li>\n
  2. If it is not possible to use reusable items, choose recyclable or compostable containers or minimally packaged goods instead.<\/li>\n
  3. Confirm what can and cannot be recycled or composted and communicate it with everybody involved in the event, including vendors and attendees.<\/li>\n
  4. Create \u201csorting stations\u201d with one recycling bin, one compost container and one trash can at each. This makes it easy for guests to sort their materials properly.<\/li>\n
  5. Make sure the recycling and composting options are promoted and clearly marked during the event to encourage proper use of all the containers.<\/li>\n
  6. Plan ahead, and if needed, hire pick up services for proper collection and disposal of waste, recycling and food waste.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
