Waste Diversion & Reduction Toolkits

Practical solutions you can use right away—whether you run a facility or recycle at home.

We identified the most common waste diversion, reduction, and management challenges and developed clear, easy-to-use toolkits for Transfer Station, Recycling Center, and Solid Waste Operators, as well as the residents they serve.

The Waste Diversion & Reduction Toolkits are designed with small, rural communities in mind—particularly those using source-separated recycling—but they are available and relevant to all programs. With resources for both operators and residents, many topics also apply to single- and dual-stream recycling systems.

What’s inside each toolkit:

Most toolkits include a short video overview highlighting key takeaways—ideal if you’re short on time. You’ll also find a one-page printable summary with essential information, along with additional resources, case studies, and implementation support materials.
