The Impact of Recycling on Resources
Recycling not only conserves energy—reducing the energy needed to create new products by 80–95%—but also preserves essential resources. Recycling contributes to the preservation of trees, essential for air purification and oxygen production, and lessens the need for limited resources such as oil, sand, limestone, and metals like aluminum, extracted through environmentally harmful processes. Support our mission and our commitment to a sustainable future by adopting recycling habits. Together, we can make a significant difference in conserving energy and resources for future generations.
Simplifying Your Recycling Experience
Our job is to make your daily and weekly recycling experience hassle-free. This is a lifestyle change, and we want to help you make it go as smoothly as possible. Here is a list of items that we accept and do not accept for recycling for various reasons. We have multiple-size containers for residential and commercial services. Our 15, 45, and 96-gallon bin containers are very efficient and easy to maneuver. We are now set up for a single stream, which means there is no longer a need to separate your recycling! For all residential customers, your 45-gallon recycling container should contain milk jugs, plastic bottles, steel cans, aluminum cans, clear and colored glass bottles, and other similar items, as well as all paper products such as newspapers, magazines, cardboard, cereal boxes, and junk mail. Yes, all in one recycling container! Please make sure all recyclable items are washed out the best you can, and please crush down your milk jugs and 2-liter plastic bottles. Thanks!

Combat Global Warming: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
Landfilling significantly contributes to global warming as trash decomposes, producing methane, a potent greenhouse gas. In contrast, burning waste not only circumvents the need for landfills but also generates power. Although it requires more volume to produce the same energy as coal, incinerating trash drastically reduces the greenhouse effect compared to landfilling. Each ton of waste can release an equivalent of 62 m3 of methane during decomposition, which has more than twice the global warming potential of CO2 produced by incineration. Given the environmental impact of waste disposal, it's essential to minimize waste generation. Start making a difference today by reducing, reusing, and recycling—join us in our efforts to protect the planet.
