Public Space Recycling Program Launch

The City of Kawartha Lakes has partnered with EcoMedia Direct Inc. to place SilverBox™ Units City-wide.  During May 2010, look for these recycle units as they will become part of our public space landscape; installed in areas of high pedestrian and vehicular traffic.

“We are pleased to partner with such a beautiful City like Kawartha Lakes, and play a small part in helping to protect the environment,” said Erich Genseberger, CEO of EcoMedia Direct Inc. “EcoMedia is prepared to offer the program city wide, not just the typical urban centres such as Lindsay and Bobcaygeon.”

All advertising on the SilverBox™ Units will be handled by EcoMedia Direct Inc. with the focus on engaging local businesses in advertising efforts.  If your business is interested in advertising space please contact EcoMedia Toll Free: 1-888-592-2227 or visit their website at www.eco-media.ca.

‘Recycle on the Go’ or mobile recycle units will also be available through EcoMedia for City-wide special events.  If you are an event organizer and are interested in this recycle option for your event please call 324-9411 or email recycle@city.kawarthalakes.on.ca.

Both mobile and SilverBox™ Units are designed for ease of use, accessibility and recycling will be sorted in the same fashion as your curbside recycling.  This public space recycling program will increase the City’s diversion rate continuing to make the City a cleaner and greener place for everyone to live, work and play.
