FEEDBACK: “I built a small U-Haul–style trailer to store all my day-out essentials—canopy, chairs, tables, cooler, and even model airplanes—so I don’t have to load and unload the car each time. Using sales, thrift stores, flea markets, and repurposedMATERIALS, I kept the total cost around $800, and it pulls easily, is light enough to move by hand, and I’m thrilled with how it turned out!” – John in Ohio

Q: We often get asked, “How can we increase the landfill diversion percentage in America?”
A: Here is one of the ways. This is language written into a City of Los Angeles RFQ on a big renovation project. Please encourage your local governments & the organization you work for to include similar language in their bidding documents!
