Doesn’t the recycle symbol mean that an item is recyclable anywhere? Not exactly. Area manufacturers that buy your recyclables require specific items. Florence Recycling works hard to provide clean, uncontaminated bales that contain only items our buyers can use.
In the last six months, Florence Recycling has sold:
- 12T of steel
- 20T of aluminum
- 52T of #1 plastic bottles
- 42T of #2 plastic jugs
- 108T of paper
- 1224T of cardboard.
Recycling Right does even more than generate income from sales. Recyclables kept out of the landfill save expensive tipping fees and increase the landfill’s life. Your recycling in the last six months has kept 2,916,000 lbs. of trash out of the landfill!
Florence Recycling is successful because we diligently provide manufacturers like Constellium, Essity, and Indorama with the commodities they need to make new products and provide jobs for our talented labor force. Thank you, Florence, for Recycling Right! Keep up the excellent work to help our businesses and help your community!
