Sponsor a Dumpster
A Small Investment with a Big Community Impact
Every uncovered dumpster contributes to polluted stormwater, foul odors, and costly compliance issues for property owners and cities alike.
When you sponsor a dumpster, you’re funding the installation of a Secure Dumpster™ retrofit — a waterproof, lockable, and visually branded enclosure that prevents runoff, supports Clean Water Act compliance, and beautifies local communities.
Your sponsorship helps create cleaner neighborhoods, safer waterways, and visible proof of your environmental leadership.

Apply your sponsor panel and QR-coded signage.
Submit verification photos for ESG reporting and public recognition.
4. See Your Impact in Action
Your sponsorship creates real, measurable results:
Prevents thousands of gallons of polluted runoff each year
Reduces methane-emitting wet waste
Keeps local properties inspection-ready
Increases community awareness through branded public signage
You’ll also receive a digital impact badge and updates from your sponsored site on the public dashboard.
Why It Matters
Cities face increasing fines and enforcement under Clean Water Act mandates. Property owners often can’t afford retrofits — but with community sponsors, we can achieve:
Immediate compliance without taxpayer burden
Cleaner waterways and storm drains
A stronger local ESG footprint for participating businesses
Your sponsorship doesn’t just fix a dumpster — it builds a cleaner, more sustainable community.
