TekCollect Partners with Keep Columbus Beautiful for Adopted Area Clean Up

Columbus, Ohio, March 25, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Leading accounts receivable management company TekCollect carried out their first Adopted Area clean-up of the spring, through their ongoing partnership with Keep Columbus Beautiful.

A group of employees from all departments swarmed the half-mile adopted area on Park Street, from 1st Avenue to Goodale Street, focusing on the litter accumulated under the snow that had recently melted. The team collected 20 large bags of trash in a little over two hours.

"KCB is pleased to have the support of TekCollect and its employees as one of 160 Adopt an Area partners across the city. TekCollect understands the importance of curb appeal and its economic effect on their business and that of the historic community in which they reside,"

Wilson, Collections Supervisor at TekCollect.

The staff at TekCollect has chosen to partner with Keep Columbus Beautiful for their clean-up efforts.
