How to meet your school’s goals

When new Ridwell members join through your school’s webpage by December 15, the school can earn plastic film pickup and a field trip

Schools with 10 or more new members earn monthly plastic film pickups at your school for January through June, 2025. If you earn ongoing pickups, we’ll provide collection receptacles and will pick up directly from your school.

Schools with 20 new members will earn a field trip for up to 50 attendees.

What you need to know

New members must sign up through your school’s page or an email from Ridwell that mentions your school. Why? The link is essential so we know a new member is associated with your hard work. Emails we send that mention your school use the link!

You have through December 15 to inspire your community to join. The end of your plastic film drive is far from the end of your chance to earn pickups and a field trip! Keep in touch with your community about all the reasons it’s important to recycle plastic film and keep sharing your webpage.
