The Oyama Community Hall has been selected as a new recycling drop-off point for all air and home care packaging, which will be delivered on a regular basis to TerraCycle Canada.
Residents of Oyama and Lake Country are urged to bring as much of this waste as possible, both to ensure it’s diverted from local landfills as well as to help in its efforts to win the nationwide Febreze Frenzy Contest.
“By collecting with TerraCycle, the community hall earns donations for its school of choice: George Elliot Secondary School,” states a media release from Febreze.
“It is also able to compete in the program’s national contest, the Febreze Frenzy. The contest will award a total of $5,000 to the chosen non-profits of the top three collecting locations.”
The contest is part of TerraCycle’s Air and Home Care Brigade, which enables any brand of air-freshener cartridge or home-cleaning packaging to be recycled.
The contest runs until April 30.
