Are you passionate about recycling and looking for a way to make a direct impact on your community's green footprint? Join us as a Mobile Volunteer with Outagamie County Recycling & Solid Waste!
We need volunteers to help tag contaminated recycling carts. You’ll be part of a team following behind recycling trucks as they pick up curbside carts. When the driver spots items that shouldn't be in the recycling—such as plastic bags, scrap metal, electronics, or other dangerous materials—they’ll radio back to us, and you’ll place an “Oops Tag” on the cart to notify the resident.
What You’ll Do:
- Get in and out of a vehicle multiple times during the route
- Attach “Oops Tags” with a rubber band to contaminated recycling carts (no need to touch the contamination)
- Help educate community members on proper recycling practices
You'll be accompanied by an Outagamie County staff member who will handle driving. This is a great chance to help improve local recycling efforts and make a positive environmental impact!
Ready to help us reduce contamination and support a cleaner, greener community? Sign up today!
