Reuse-A-Shoe Program
The City of Lansing has collected nearly 80,000 pounds of worn-out athletic shoes through Nike's Reuse-A-Shoe recycling program. The shoes are shipped to Nike's processing facility in Oregon, where they are turned into new sports surfaces.

The City of Lansing received a grant to install a rubberized playground surface at Potter Park Zoo made from the ground up athletic shoes. Click Here to view pictures of the installation and finished product.
This is an on-going program. Please see list of drop-off locations below. Call 517/483-4400 or email recycle@ci.lansing.mi.us for more information. |
