Ready for Spring

Grecycle is!

Even though Phil the groundhog forecasted another 6 weeks of winter, Grecycle is gearing up for a busy spring, starting with it’s participation in the 4th Avenue Spring Street Fair in Tucson, AZ.  The event is to be held March 23rd to the 25th, 2012 along Tucson’s iconic 4th avenue from Univeristy Boulevard to the Underpass at 9th Avenue.  There will be over 400 arts and crafts booths for the public to visit and over 35 food vendors to choose from!  And keep an eye out for Grecycle’s grease recycling bins; they will be placed throughout the fair to collect the cooking oil used to fry, boil, bake, and bread the delicious food that is available to eat!  Remember, the collection bins are for grease only, trash cans and recycling bins will be in ample supple as well.  Lets work together to create a fun, fresh, and free of trash environment for our fabulous Fourth Avenue Street Fair.

 

Saving the Earth does not stop there!  April showers may bring May flowers, but also begins another year to celebrate our planet.  Earth Day is April 22nd, 2012 and Grecycle is sure to not miss out on the festivities!  Friday April 20th, 2012, Grecycle will be in attendance at the University of Arizona’s Earth Day 2012 celebration hosted by it’s Students for Sustainability on University Boulevard from 4pm to 8pm.  The following day April 21st, 2012 Grecycle will be with the rest of Tucson for the 18th Annual Tucson Earth Day Festival from 9am to 2pm at Reid Park.  Come join us and learn something about the great planet we call our home.  Find out about energy saving tips that can save you money and are easy to perform around your home, learn about healthy ways to live alongside your environment, and come learn about how Grecycle is working to create a better environment for it’s fellow Tucsonans and the rest of the world!

Happy Holidays

In these times of joyous celebration, when you gather with those you love

Get swept up in the high spirits that take the nation,

and take time to be kind to those that you are thinking of,

 

Then as you sit down to a holiday feast,

admiring the beauty and splendor of the  centerpiece,

do not forget, not in the least,

that Grecycle will recycle all of your grease!

Happy Holidays!

From all of us at Grecycle

 

7th Annual Day After Thanksgiving Grease Drive

Thank you for joining Grecycle for our 7th Annual Day After Thanksgiving Grease Drive.  With seven drop-off locations spread out between three different cities, we were able to collect over 5,700 pounds of used cooking oil!  That equates to over 5,700 pounds of biodiesel that can be produced locally and used right here in Tucson and Southern Arizona!  For this holiday season, even though our Grease Drive is over, Grecycle is always collecting.  If you were unable to attend this years event, Grecycle has a number of Free Annual Drop-off locations.  Find one near you form our list located below.
