August Hall
August Hall, originally built in the 1890s, is now a multidisciplinary event space with a 951-person capacity music hall, cocktail room, full kitchen, and three lanes of bowling.
August Hall replaced their 9 ounce, 12 ounce, and 20 ounce compostable plastic cups with reusable TURN cups.
Business Profile:
Taking into account the expense of TURN cups (an estimated annual cost of $13,000) and not having to purchase single-use disposable cups, August Hall expects to achieve an annual net cost savings of $29,700, while reducing the annual use of 232,000 single-use plastic cups and 5,000 pounds of plastic trash. Additionally, these savings will be augmented by reductions in refuse hauling fees.
