Mayor Kasim Reed has announced a new partnership with Recycling Perks, an incentivized recycling program, which allows residents to earn rewards for using their City of Atlanta recycling bins.
Residents can sign up at recyclingperks.com and start earning points on Sept. 8. These points can be redeemed at restaurants and shops throughout the city, saving residents up to $300 per year, according to information released to the media.
“The more you recycle, the more you earn,” said Public Works Commissioner Richard Mendoza. “The Department of Public Works is proud to partner with Recycling Perks as we continue to provide excellent recycling service to the residents of the City of Atlanta.”
Detailed information about the City’s recycling program can be found at atlantaga.gov/recycling. Curbside pickup schedules are available at atl311.com.
“This program is an excellent new tool that will help us reach Reed’s sustainability goals for the City of Atlanta,” said Stephanie Benfield, Director of the Mayor’s Office of Sustainability.
