I'm working with a crew that is arranging room in the Baytown Wharf dock area for a recycling bin. Turns out, they throw EVERYTHING out there except cardboard. A lot of the employees, owners and the Sandestin staff are looking for environmental-friendlier alternatives. Rum's(where I work) Graffiti's and the Door are working with us too. With as much business that goes through the Wharf, we could help the cause a lot. Maybe if we get it right, they'll even push to make the whole of Sandestin a member of the recycling community. They're already replacing lights with energy savers and various other eco-smart ideas.
Having everything in place by Earth Day is our goal. we'll have a dumpster there and start smoothing out what can and can't be reused, as well as a way to get it to the proper bins. We've gotten the dimensions of both sizes of recycling bins and are working on constructing a dock to surround the bin with an elevated platform and a ramp. (That way the employees don't have to lift full cans of glass, plastic, etc. over their heads to dump it.)
If there are any environmentally-friendly contractors that would like to aid in this endeavor, please contact either myself or Rum Runners to expedite the process. Any help, advice, etc. would be greatly welcomed.
