Zero Waste In Grand Teton
Grand Teton National Park hopes to divert 60% of its waste from landfills by 2030, getting
us one step closer to zero waste!
Diverting waste from landfills is really important to us, because it ensures that our park remains
as beautiful as it is today, for the next century and beyond.
We’ve already made some great strides, like installing water filling stations, and placing
new universal labels on recycling bins throughout the park.
But there are still many ways that you can help!
During your visit remember the three Rs:
Reduce: Plan ahead and replace single use items with reusable alternatives, to reduce
the amount of single use items, like plastic packaging in the waste stream.
Reuse: Bring your reusable water bottle which you can refill at one of the parks water filling
stations.
Recycle: Plastic bottles, all colors of glass, aluminum and tin cans, even propane and bear
spray, can all be recycled in the park.
