Where do all those thousands of campaign signs go after Election Day? @getridwell is leading a campaign in the Bay Area to collect them for recycle and reuse so they don’t end up in the landfill.
Such a pleasure talking with @AliceShort3@latimes about practical takeaways from Total Garbage, including how a father-son project grew into a powerhouse social impact biz that turns your trash into treasure @getridwell @Avery_Books https://t.co/TfP8xoSClS

Just about everything in this Ridwell processing facility in San Leandro will be donated to a Bay Area nonprofit or sent to a recycler to become something new. The subscription service offers a new spin on recycling items that identify aren’t accept in the blue curbside bin.
We can do better, together. Will you join #ridwell in the movement to keep 10 million pounds of trash out of the waste stream this year? #sustainability https://t.co/KxoyPrmvuo

Happy New Year! We closed out 2023 by expanding service to LA, where we are growing fast. Angelenos can now join the movement to waste less with #ridwell and create more sustainable routines in 2024.
A little #ridwell fact for the day: Did you know that between November and New Year's Day, the US produces 25% more trash, equivalent to a staggering 4 to 5 million extra tons of waste? 🎄🌎
