MAKE A DIFFERENCE AT EXPO

Think Before You Throw: Recycling and composting bins are located throughout the McCormick Place and Specialty Coffee Expo floor, so you’ll never have to go far to responsibly dispose of your waste. Take a moment to consider what goes where:

• COMPOST: Coffee grounds, food, coffee filters

• RECYCLING: Plastic bottles, milk jugs, aluminium cans, paper, glass bottles, cardboard, pamphlets, flyers

• LANDFILL: Plastic utensils, chip bags, plastic wrappers, plastic cups

• LIQUIDS: Pour liquids into drains and dispose of the vessel in the appropriate bin

Go Green in Your Hotel Room: Be sure to take advantage of towel and sheet reuse initiatives that may be offered by your hotel. Don’t forget to turn off all lights and electronics when you leave your room each day!

Low Impact Transportation: Chicago is committed to low impact transportation and there are various options available. Here are a few:

• Bike to Expo – Bike racks and bike parking for city-wide Divvy Lyft bikes are located at Gate 3 of the South Building, Gate 40 of the West Building and Gate 38 of Lakeside Center.

• Use Public Transit – Plan your trip to McCormick Place with RTA Trip Planner. The McCormick Place stop (bus, train) is located on Martin Luther King Dr. near the South Building.

Reusable Cups: Drinking water stations are located throughout the Expo show floor. Bring your own water bottle or reusable cup to reduce single use drinking cups.
