Cleaner Streets
Keep bagged garbage and recyclable cardboard secured inside BoxxZen XL while awaiting collection and help reduce scattered waste and sidewalk clutter.
MUNICIPAL PARTNERSHIPS
Rethinking How Waste Meets the Street.
SUN E MATES is exploring partnerships with municipalities, public works departments, sanitation teams, Business Improvement Districts, and commercial-district partners looking for better ways to contain waste and improve shared public spaces.
THE STREET-LEVEL CHALLENGE
Containment affects more than collection.
When commercial waste is left in exposed bags or accessible containers, the effects can reach beyond sanitation. Loose waste, odors, sidewalk clutter and access for rats, cats, raccoons, skunks and other animals can all affect how a neighborhood looks and feels.
In its municipal waste-management configuration, BoxxZen XL is the waste container itself. Bagged garbage and recyclable cardboard are placed directly inside BoxxZen XL and secured while awaiting collection, helping limit access by rats, cats and other animals.
QUALITY OF LIFE
This Is About More Than Trash.
Waste infrastructure affects how a neighborhood looks, feels and functions. Better containment can support cleaner commercial corridors while creating another physical barrier between contained waste and nuisance wildlife.
BoxxZen is not pest control. It is infrastructure designed to help reduce one of the opportunities pests exploit: access to exposed waste.
PUBLIC-SPACE OUTCOMES
Designed Around the Street, Not Just the Container.
Less Access for Pests
Create a physical barrier that can make contained waste less accessible to rats, cats and other animals.
Better Streetscapes
Support a more orderly environment along commercial corridors and other shared public spaces.
Collection Compatibility
Evaluate placement, capacity, sanitation and collection workflow as part of each site-specific configuration.
A PRACTICAL PILOT
Start With the Actual Problem.
A municipal pilot should begin at a real location with a defined challenge. Establish the baseline, configure the waste container for the site, observe what changes and use the results to decide whether broader deployment makes sense.
WHAT WE MEASURE
Measure What Changes.
A pilot can establish a baseline and evaluate practical outcomes such as:
- Waste containment around the deployment area
- Visible litter near the site
- Observed access to waste by nuisance wildlife
- Compatibility with collection operations
- Feedback from businesses and public-space stakeholders
Pilot measures should be agreed upon with the participating municipality or partner before deployment. Results from one location may not predict results at another.
POTENTIAL PARTNERS
Built for Local Collaboration.
We welcome conversations with municipalities, departments of public works, sanitation agencies, Business Improvement Districts and commercial-district stakeholders looking to test a site-specific containment approach.
BoxxZen XL serves as the waste container in this application, holding bagged garbage and recyclable cardboard directly until collection. Final configuration, placement, sanitation and collection procedures are reviewed for the site and applicable local requirements.
