Recycling makes economic sense.

If you are paying to dispose of recyclables in the landfill, you are paying too much! Many companies have found that once they separated out the recyclables they were able to sell materials that they used to pay to haul away!   In addition to the new income, they were able to significantly reduce all the costs associated with landfill waste disposal - pick up fees, container charges, tonnage fees, and even labor charges for moving those materials around.

"It’s estimated that nationally the commercial sector generates between 30% and 70% of a community’s municipal solid waste. Step up efforts to get businesses to first reduce and then recycle what they generate.

Boosting efforts to tackle commercial waste is a top priority for cities and businesses that want to cut costs, limit waste entering the landfill, and improve the environment. Plus customers notice."
