Cardboard box Recycling Near me

Recycling is a simple way for everyone to help out their communities and the environment. You can help preserve natural resources from being depleted by supporting the recycled goods market.

Today, we see the internationally-recognized symbol for recycling (three arrows moving in a triangle) on more products than ever before. The arrows each represent a different part of the recycling process-collection, remanufacture, and resale.

Check for the recycling symbol before you throw an item away. It's an easy way to reduce your household waste amounts and do something good for the Earth and our future.

We will not be accepting any glass in the recycling

Recycling glass is unfortunately not very economical or eco-friendly. Mixing glass with the other recycling taints the cardboard and paper that makes up most of the recycling materials.

Mixed glass recycling must be collected, loaded on trucks and shipped out of state for processing. These factors negate most, if not all, of the environmental benefits of the recycling effort.

We do have an alternative which is economical and eco-friendly! You can collect and take your glass containers to one of the drop box locations for glass recycling. The glass stays out of the other recycling materials and is collected by a fiber glass manufacturer.
