Low Waste events
A New Chapter:
Looking for Support?
We encourage you to connect with our partners and friends at Hamilton County ReSource, who offer free recycling and compost collection containers for events held in Hamilton County. Their Clear-Tainer bins are highly visible, clearly labeled, and easy to borrow, making waste sorting simple for your guests!
Why It Still Matters!
Hosting a low waste event helps reduce your environmental impact and can be a powerful tool to engage your guests in sustainability. We still practice low waste principles at all our events and encourage others to do the same by planning ahead, minimizing single-use materials, and setting up effective waste sorting stations. We’re excited to see more events across the region go low waste—and we’re cheering you on!

At Keep Cincinnati Beautiful, we’re proud of the years we’ve spent helping local organizations host low waste events through composting support, educational materials, and on-site waste diversion tools. These efforts were a natural extension of our commitment to environmental stewardship in everything we do. As our programs evolve, we’re transitioning away from providing Low Waste Event services directly, but that doesn’t mean you have to go it alone.
