Off-Site Kingston Area Recycler (OSKAR)

OSKAR stands for Off-Site Kingston Area Recycler, our mobile waste trailer. It helps keep recyclables and compostables out of landfill and off the ground. 

Make your next community event cleaner and greener by inviting OSKAR! The mobile trailer is adaptable and can be changed to meet your event needs. Need lots of room for plastic water bottles? – OSKAR can do it! Looking to only divert organic and paper waste? - OSKAR can do it!

Fees

The cost of using OSKAR starts at $64.65 per drop off and pick-up.

This fee covers the cost of delivery and emptying of OSKAR. For most events, only one delivery and pick-up is needed. Our staff will review your needs at the time of booking.

Penalties may apply for contaminated materials. To avoid a contaminated materials fee, we recommend a volunteer or representative from the event help people recycle and compost correctly.
