πŸš›πŸ“š What a day at the Oak Park Public Library!

We rolled up in our all-electric LRS truck for Touch a Truck and had the best time bringing recycling to life.

πŸ“– Our driver read The Big Sort Aluminum Adventures with Fran the Can while the librarian shared their most checked out recycling book. Then it was time for a music parade with marching, playing instruments and singing recycling songs.

πŸ’¬ The kids asked great questions about what it is like to be a garbage truck driver before taking turns in the driver’s seat to honk the horn.

Everyone went home with:
βœ… A copy of Aluminum Adventures
βœ… A Fran the Can plushie
βœ… A recycling coloring book
βœ… A charm for their summer reading necklace

Thank you Oak Park Library for helping us inspire the next generation of environmental stewards πŸŒŽβ™»οΈ

Thank your cooperation in keeping Dekalb clean and sustainable! πŸ™Œ

πŸš›β„οΈA special delivery on one of the coldest days of the year!β„οΈπŸš›

On a chilly day in Villa Park, one of our drivers Walter brought some warmth and joy to Reid's day with a surprise visit! Reid was over the moon to meet the person behind the garbage truck he loves watching so much. His mom shared with us that this would be a thrill of his life as he loves watching the truck go by every week. We provided him some LRS gear and officially welcomed to our Trash Trackers Fan Group! Shoutout to our Maywood team for coordinating this heartwarming visit.
