One man’s trash is another man’s treasure.

Rarely does anyone think about their trash and recycling company–especially when there’s usually not a choice. But in Colorado Springs, the residents have an option. So how do we show that this highly dedicated company is one worth thinking about?

To highlight that Bestway truly lives their responsible recycling philosophy and famous friendly personality, we decided to highlight one of their customers, Jim Marsh. He’s a local artist and musician who creates awesomely unique instruments: hubcap banjos, gas can basses, license plate guitars, etc. all from materials that he finds from shops around town. We documented his process of making an electric guitar from an old military box and saw it live in action with his bluegrass band. Passionate customers like Jim show us that there’s treasure out there in all forms of recycling if you’re willing to look. And it’s all part of Giving Garbage A Good Name.
