RecycleSmart 5 R's
Truck Sign Art Contest
We’re looking for young artists in our service area to help us create our 2026 truck signs!
These highly visible signs are placed on both sides of the Republic Services collection trucks that pick up our recycling, organics and trash. All those in 3rd through 12th grades are invited to participate in the truck sign art contest by creating art that highlights any or all the 5 R’s to raise awareness and encourage everyone to prevent and reduce waste, compost organics and/or sort our three material streams (recycling, organics and trash) properly.
One winning sign will be chosen, and the sign will be up on some of the Republic Services trucks throughout our communities for one year!
