The Zero Waste team has been providing recycling and waste diversion education to our Phoenix schools, businesses and neighborhoods. Now, they are delivering recycling education directly to your homes!

Welcome to Recycle+, created to keep the interest and education on waste diversion ongoing – in your homes, in schools, or wherever there is wifi.
We hope Recycle+ motivates you to take the extra step to recycle right and recycle more. Also, meet Zero, Phoenix's Recycling Raptor!
