The Norm…

The Issues:

Animals, Birds, Wind and

Over-Flowing Trash Cans

• Would this keep a bear

out?

• Do these doors meet

ADA requirements?

Water gets in

and garbage gets out…

Pollutes ground water and

attracts nuisance pests such

as rodents, birds and insects.

VS.

One-piece solid

construction – once

the trash goes in the

can, it stays in the can!

Consolidation

The Possibilities…

The Solutions =

Millennium Series

Opportunities for

Partnerships and Sponsorships “Adopt a Can” opportunities can be offered to local businesses.

The sponsor would receive brand recognition by installing a permanent

sign on the can.

Facility user groups could be encouraged to sponsor a can because they

benefit most from the conversion.

Recreation says, “if I converted the whole parks system

over, I would have a ROI in three years.”

Gary Abernathy with Albany Parks and Recreation says,

“they work even better than we thought.”

More Testimonials

Chuck Van Zandt, with the City of San Antonio Parks and

Recreation Department says, “In short, these units work

exactly as described. Work smarter, not harder.”
