From the Factory Floor to Florida’s Waterfront: Fort Pierce Welcomes Summer with Bigbelly

American-made infrastructure helping create cleaner public spaces where life happens.

Just weeks ago, these Bigbelly stations were being built at our manufacturing facility in Massachusetts. Today, they’re helping create cleaner public spaces throughout Fort Pierce’s downtown, parks, River Walk, and waterfront, welcoming residents and visitors during one of the city’s busiest seasons.

As communities continue investing in infrastructure that enhances quality of life, Fort Pierce is demonstrating how smart public-space solutions can help create cleaner, more vibrant destinations while improving day-to-day operations.

Building a Better Waterfront Experience

Fort Pierce’s waterfront, parks, and downtown are central gathering places for the community, attracting residents, visitors, boaters, and families throughout the year.

To support growing activity while improving operational efficiency, the city replaced traditional public waste bins with fully enclosed, solar-powered Bigbelly compacting waste and recycling stations designed for high-traffic public spaces.

The result is infrastructure that helps keep public spaces cleaner while allowing operations teams to work more efficiently.

Delivering Measurable Results

The new deployment helps Fort Pierce:

☀️ Reduce waste collections by up to 80% through solar-powered compaction.

🌊 Create cleaner waterfronts, parks, and public gathering spaces for residents and visitors.

🚮 Help reduce litter and deter pest activity with fully enclosed waste containment.

📲 Improve operational visibility through smart collection technology and fullness monitoring.

♻️ Support sustainability goals by expanding opportunities for waste and recycling in public spaces.

Built in America. Designed for Communities.

Every Bigbelly deployment begins at our manufacturing facility in Massachusetts before being delivered to communities across the United States and around the world.

Fort Pierce’s deployment reflects how American-made innovation can help communities create cleaner, more welcoming environments while optimizing operations and supporting long-term sustainability goals.

From manufacturing to installation, every deployment represents a partnership dedicated to improving the places where people live, work, and gather.

Creating Cleaner Communities Together

Whether supporting downtown revitalization, waterfront destinations, parks, campuses, hospitals, airports, or entertainment districts, Bigbelly helps communities invest in infrastructure that delivers lasting value.

We’re proud to see Fort Pierce’s vision come to life and look forward to watching residents and visitors enjoy cleaner public spaces all summer long.
