Trex Community Challenge
Libraries are eligible to participate in Trex Community Challenge program. This program supplies libraries with a receptacle to collect plastic film for recycling. Trex partners with many regional and national chain stores to serve as plastic film drop off centers. Once collected and weighed, libraries can drop off the plastic film at convenient locations. Trex has partnered with several grocery store chains and national retail store chains to provide drop off locations. Collect 500lbs of plastic for recycling and earn a free Trex bench for your library. We love the example set by Mamakating Library, where, as part of their work for certification, they have collected enough plastic to earn several benches. When they ran out of room on their property, they raffled off the bench that they earned as a library fundraiser.
