FOR OUR GUESTS

Alternative-Fuel Parking

If you have an electric vehicle, we've got you covered.  Covered parking that is. 

Many on-airport parking options have electric vehicle charging stations with designated parking spots convenient to the terminal.  This includes "Level 1" chargers in our Long-Term Parking Garage and Economy Parking Garage, and "Level 2" chargers found at our Cell Phone Lot.

You can also find an assortment of electric vehicle options located at our consolidated Rental Car Center. 

Thank you for recycling!

Tampa International Airport expanded its terminal recycling program in March 2009.  A total of 132 recycling containers were placed in the public areas to provide convenient access for our guests to recycle when they visit TPA.  Our program allows for the recycling of plastics, glass, aluminum, steel cans, newspapers, magazines and paperboard.  An additional 31 containers were placed in employee breakrooms.

In addition to all TPA waste going to the City of Tampa's "Waste-to-Energy" plant, the City's program accepts co-mingled recyclables, so there's no need to separate your items.  They all go into the same bin! 

In addition to these efforts, TPA also ensures that its selected custodial contractor helps sort public recycling bins to eliminate cross-contamination and improve waste diversion rates. TPA also supports many concessionaire-driven waste-reduction efforts, including food and good donation programs, and local composting initiatives. 

With over 1,100 tons diverted from the landfill each year, at TPA, we are playing our part in reducing waste, while we're saving the airport over $80,000 per year in trash disposal fees.
