The Benefits Of Starting A Recycling Green Initiative At Your Company

Businesses often overlook waste management until it becomes a visible problem. You can easily see overflowing bins, loose waste, and scrap piles cluttering your facility and taking up space. What you don’t see, however, is how much your company contributes to landfills annually. 

Launching a company-wide green initiative restores your control over the workspace and shrinks your environmental footprint. Going green is good for the planet and can be great for your bottom line.

In this blog, we’ll focus on an area where industrial recycling has helped businesses implement green initiatives.

Corporate companies want to maximize the value of their recycling equipment and reduce landfill rates.

Companies with multiple facilities and larger waste streams can benefit from industrial recycling to generate potential revenue and reduce landfill costs. 

Facilities with existing waste management equipment, such as industrial balers, are already a step ahead. By partnering with Quincy Recycle, businesses can maximize equipment investments and reduce the volume of waste sent to landfills. We work with companies to pick up high-volume distribution center generated waste or manufacturing by-product waste, like shrink wrap and packaging waste, from different locations to collectively manage waste streams. With our help, your business can comply with corporate mandates for reducing landfill rates and demonstrate a commitment to sustainable practices.

Our approach to your business is flexible and forward-thinking. We address the immediate concern of waste management while also monitoring your company’s future growth and environmental goals. We prioritize cost reduction, new efficiencies, and increased revenue because we understand that a successful green initiative must deliver tangible benefits to your company.
