Recyclable paper, cardboard, and bottles & cans currently take up more than 50% of our nation’s landfill space. The good news is that these wastes are some of the most valuable and readily recyclable materials in America’s waste stream. The paper and cardboard recycled today goes into thousands of products that we use every day from ceiling tiles and building insulation, to business cards and newspapers. Plastic, metal, and glass bottles & cans are recycled into thousands of products, many of which we use every day. Many environmental experts believe that recycling is the single most important environmental effort that businesses in the New York metro area can engage in. It reduces disposal costs and hauling requirements, reinforces a commitment to efficiency and smart business which is appreciated by customers and employees, and greatly diminishes pollution in the local environment. Of the efforts taken to help the environment, recycling is one that makes a difference you can see every day, on our roads and in the air.
