Electronic Waste and Textile Recycling Event

Staff collecting electronic waste and textiles for recycling

Keep Orlando Beautiful hosts a free Electronic Waste and Textile Recycling Event at Orlando Festival Park twice a year. Participants don't have to get out of the car or be a City of Orlando resident to participate.

Since 2016, KOB has collected over thousands of pounds of waste. By donating unwanted goods and recycling textiles, you’re keeping your neighborhood clean, improving the quality of life for those in need and protecting the environment for future generations.
