Recycling bottles and cans at special events – festivals, fairs, outdoor concerts etc., is now much easier with the use of the ClearStream Container. The ClearStream is specifically designed to target the variety of bottles and cans commonly consumed at events. The use of a translucent bag and restrictive top clearly identifies that the container is only for recycling.

ClearStream containers and bags are available through the SCRRRA at no cost! Contact us to schedule use at your event.
