KEG is a family business. Our girls take pride in recycling and encouraging others to do so! All three are a great help with KEG. It could not occur without their help and support. Huge praise goes to our daughter, Makayla. Makayla enjoys collecting recyclables each and every Sunday. Maria and Madison help on some Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Keepin' Enid Green (KEG) uses a business model that is different than any other recycling company in the U.S.KEG is a private collection service. We provide this fee-based service as a means to encourage recycling by making it easier for those who want to recycle, but cannot get to the only City recycling drop-off location.

All collected materials are donated to Supported Community Lifestyles/DocuGUARD, a company that employs people with developmental disabilities. They, in turn, sell these materials to bring in revenues to provide more jobs in Enid. Supported Community Lifestyles employees earn at least minimum wage to sort and process the recyclable materials. Supported Community Lifestyles annual client worker payroll is over $300,000 annually, all of which is spent in our community.

Recycling in Enid helps the longevity of our natural resources while providing job opportunities and higher wages to fellow Enid citizens!

Why can't I recycle the plastic lids?

The lids to plastic bottles are made of different grades of plastic than the bottle itself. These grades of plastic are not recycle in our area. The little plastic rings that are left behind from a lid are an acceptable evil because they are so small. Each bale is allowed a very small percentage of contaminants.
