Introduction

Plan

ToDo

  • Talk with Team:Terrain about locations and equipment size/routes
  • Talk with Team:Sysadmin and Team:Terrain for c3 bottles integration in map.why2025.org (in progress already, Bas)
  • Talk with GP Groot about bin-liners 240L and 60L, if they can get us those affordable or not.
  • Talk with Team:Warehouse about storing bin-liners (in progress, Bas)
  • Talk with Horeca about foodcourt (in progress, Bas)
  • Make weatherproof signs to put on bins with QR for reporting system.
  • Plot/plan bin locations on maps.why20205.org
  • Make Team:Waste merch ;)
  • Setup phone stuff with Team:POC, callgroup, numbers, can we borrow phones?
  • Info for Maplet (previously booklet) needs to be checked from previous events and updated with Team:Info.
  • Team toilets
    • Please ask them to not put any papieren handdoekjes in the toilet blocks because it makes the trash cans very heavy. Air drying is good enough.
  • Design and plan angel shifts
  • Figure out our own schedule
  • Integrate our planning into general event planning.

Done

  • Decide wether we also collect the Mate bottles and other pfand: we don't. Team Horeca is organizing it themselves.
  • Talk with Dimitri if he needs bins to keep gas bottles warm: he doesn't.
  • Talk with team Power to spec the power for the compactors: 2 locations 400v 32A
  • Tool requisition sent to Warehouse
  • Boels request (2x electric vehicle + trailer) sent to Onsite/Manduca)
  • Talk with team:Villages that they will actively hand out trash bags to villages, keep an eye on 'big things' and that a village leaves the field cleaner than they found it.


Dependencies

  • Fixed DECT call group (for example, GRBG, WAST, WSTE, TRSH) (contact Team:POC about this)
  • Instructions about waste
    • "Please take home everything you bring, especially couches and tents" or something like that
    • Contact Team:Info and Team:Villages about this
  • Team:Terrain for planning
    • Where should we collect everything
    • Where is most of the waste produced (bar, food court, ...)
  • Team:Volunteers for arranging volunteer shifts (picking up garbage and stuff)
  • Team:NUTS for the power to the garbage press containers that compress trash
  • Contact Team:Foodcourt about managing trash
    • We supply infra, they empty the bins around the court?
    • Might be useful if they have a trash compactor as well
  • Team:Bar
    • For Mate crates to collect empty bottles
    • Statiegeld - what do they want to offer? Plastic bottles and cans have statiegeld on them.


Stuff we need

Transport

  • 2 big 40-foot waste containers for the end of the event
  • 2,5 Gators and 2 trailers, reserved for Waste

Communication

  • 1 portofoon per Gator
  • DECT for each member of Team:Waste

Personal equipment

  • Proper gloves in different sizes, for handling trash
  • Workpants and/or some cheap shirts that can be dirty
    • Free access to a washing machine
  • Disinfecting soap

Trash collection

  • Roll containers
    • More than enough so that full ones can easily be swapped for empty ones during the event.
  • Strong garbage bags
    • One for every visitor
    • A roll of garbage bags for every village
    • Large ones for the bins
  • Containers for special trash
    • Paper
    • Glass
    • PMD
    • Bulky waste
    • Mate (no, team waste will not do 'statiegeld')
    • Compost/green trash
    • ???
  • Sand for hot stuff like sigarettes
  • Signs on the bins + tape

Trash handling

  • Mobile press containers to compress trash
    • Preferably should accept trash bags, instead of just containers
  • Lighting for evening and night, so that trash handling can still be safely done in the dark

Ideas

This section is for all volunteers. If you have any suggestions or idea's of stuff we could or should do (or not do), please post them here. Your idea's won't go to waste!

  • Collect radio active waste separately.
  • Create a location to collect chemical waste or electronic waste.
  • Statiegeld bags can be get trough wholesalers for bulk collection and return of deposit/ statiegeld bottle
  • Lightning5: Hey, at MCH we've figured out during teardown that compacters can run while trash is being thrown in. That has turned out to be much better for the compactors (less trash per cycle) and nicer on the power supply (constant load). Check if this is possible with the compactors at WHY and if it is a good idea to operate this way :)
  • Lightning5: Lol, I've got another idea: I've been at a festival where every participant got a mandatory trash bag that had a deposit. At the end of the event, you had to return (somewhat) full trash bag to get the deposit back.
