Beginning in mid-September 2016, all single-family, multifamily and commercial participants of the Recyclebank incentive program in Hollywood, Florida, will get access to a new recycling incentive program after six years.

The new incentive program from Recycling Perks, Norfolk, Virginia, will offer reward points to registered users that can be redeemed for discounts, freebies and special deals from retailers, restaurants, grocers and more. Ninety-five percent of these businesses are local, according to Recycling Perks, and the remainder are national businesses with a local presence.

All year long, the local Hollywood Recycling Perks representative will participate in neighborhood meetings, environmental awareness campaigns and city-sponsored events to promote the incentive program and to educate residents about recycling.

Recycling Perks LLC was started in Virginia in partnership with TFC Recycling, Chesapeake, Virginia, in May 2010 as a vehicle to provide recycling incentives to current and future residential recycling customers. Since then it adopted by many cities on the East Coast, including Atlanta; Clearwater, Florida; and Richmond, Virginia.

Recycling Perks has two goals: to get more people to recycle and to involve the community in making their city’s greener. Each partnership is unique and is tailored to be specific to the needs of each city served, according to the company. Recycling Perks says it has built a knowledge base that allows it to provide service and support to cities that are looking to enhance their recycling programs, reward residents, foster community involvement in nonprofits and facilitate a “shop-local” environment.

“Recycling Perks doesn’t just make the city greener, it is an all-inclusive program that pushes residents to become part of the process and to develop additional creative initiatives to support diverse causes from schools to animal shelters by offering programs to nonprofits,” says Bill Dempsey, president of Recycling Perks. “We are excited to be expanding to another city in Florida. Hollywood takes a lot of pride in their recycling program, and we are ready to work together to provide additional education, outreach and rewards.”
