RECYCLING UPDATE

With our new recycling program, we’ve already composted 1,500 lbs of organic matter this week alone! The EPA reports that 4.9% of our nation’s landfill comes from corrugated boxes with another 3.0% coming from glass bottles. So, starting Monday, we’ll be initiating the next phase of our recycling program. All cardboard, glass, plastic, and metal cans will be recycled in a more efficient way with our new single stream recycling program. We’ll be posting our recycling statistics on this blog so, if you’re interested in how much our company is recycling, check back here for updated recycling statistics.
