The Green Team maximizes waste diversion through these initiatives:
- Waste Sorting: We go through each bin to sort the materials properly. We like to coin this as glamorous dumpster diving!
- Bin Guarding: We station at the waste bins to educate attendees about which bin is the right fit. We are always inspired at the engagement of attendees across all ages!
- Sourcing Alternatives: We work with event producers and vendors to find affordable alternatives that can be easily reused, repurposed, recycled, or composted.
- Compost Bins: We divert all food, paper materials, and more. Our partners use our compost to grow fresh, local produce!
- Waste Strategy: We provide signage, bin placement, and more to ensure maximized diversion.
- Venue Beautification: We make sure to leave the event space better than we found it.

Testimonials

I wanted to take a minute and thank GreenLight Solutions. It was a pleasure to work their staff as they took a hands on approach to divert recyclable items out of the landfill. Their communication before, during, and after the event has been remarkable. With as many events that Tempe hosts, I look forward to working with them in the future in hopes of an even more sustainable Tempe. - Patrick Saros, Interim Municipal Utilities Program Coordinator, City of Tempe
GreenLight Solutions did an incredible job of maintaining cleanliness throughout the park and keeping the consolidated trash areas clean and accessible to patrons. Ashley and her crew were great to work with during the event; they were super responsive and able to pivot quickly if needed. As an event that prides itself on its impact to the city of Tempe, we are proud to have partnered with GreenLight Solutions to drive sustainability and minimize our event's waste footprint. - Keith Lamarre, Oktoberfest Facilities Manager, Tempe Sister Cities

I don’t know what I would do without GreenLight Solutions. You've changed the game for waste diversion in Tempe. I have worked with dozens of nonprofits and I have found GreenLight Solutions to be one of the most organized, communicative, passionate, and empowering. They are truly impressive in that they are always responsive, engaged, and open to pivoting with little notice. I can’t say enough good things about them! - Dawn Ratcliffe, Keep Tempe Beautiful Board Member - Sustainability and Outreach Chair, City of Tempe
