EAST GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — East Grand Rapids neighbors can trade in one gas-powered piece of lawn equipment for electric alternatives through a buyback event next month.
The E-GReen Sustainability Initiative will host the event May 3 at the Public Works Complex. Participants can receive a $100 coupon in exchange for turning in gas-powered lawn equipment.
The coupons can be used toward purchasing electric equipment at a local hardware store.
Organizers said the goal is to help reduce emissions and make cleaner options more accessible to neighbors.
Registration is required but does not guarantee a coupon. Coupons will be presented at time of trade-in.
