There is a lot of misinformation out in the general public about recycling.  While there can be intrinsic value to some recyclable materials, it takes an enormous amount of those materials to be collected, sorted, processed and stored in order to turn those materials into a salable commodity.  The large overhead costs of collecting those materials and the infrastructure to complete the processing is the main reason for market-driven costs incurred in picking up recycling containers.

Easy!  If you already operate a baler or compactor on-site, we can provide a no-hassle service estimate to coordinate the collection of all baled materials with a recurring purchase order.  If you don’t already have a baler or compactor, we can provide one for little – sometimes zero – cost.  The small footprint balers are extremely powerful and super easy to install and use.  We provide free onsite training and cover all the maintenance on leased balers.  Your firm can begin receiving significant revenue with our virtually ‘zero-cost-of-ownership’ baler lease program.
