Houseshold Recycling
Our finished product is sold to brokers or shipped directly to mills and from there is used for a variety of uses such as insulation, egg cartons, wrapping paper, lumber products, new aluminum, DVD’s, new cardboard, metal product, irrigation pipes, packaging material, composite decking, garden hoses, shovels, truck liners, recycling carts and clothing just to name a few. Why Recycle: We need to practice good habits such as conserving energy, reusing as much as possible and making our Earth greener and heathier. Remember we only have one earth. Without your daily efforts to make the right decision and recycle all the material I talked about it would end up in your landfill not only causing pollution, but is extremely hazardous to our environment.
