Today, more than ever, people understand the need to intelligently manage waste. For a growing percentage of the population, this means looking for more opportunities to reduce, reuse and recycle. Individuals in communities that we serve can recycle in a number of ways. In some cases, we offer recycling drop-off locations. In others, curbside home collection is available. Businesses can also find out about our available commercial recycling capabilities whether they have one location or hundreds.
Recycling--Materials Recovery Facilities
Republic is one of America’s largest recyclers. We have 78 materials recovery facilities and other recycling operations. These facilities sort recyclable paper, cardboard, aluminum, glass and other materials. Most of these recyclable materials are internally collected by our residential collection operations. In 
some areas, we receive commercial and industrial solid waste that is sorted at our facilities into recyclable materials and non-recyclable waste. The recyclable materials are salvaged, repackaged and shipped to third parties, and the non-recyclable waste is disposed of. Last year, Republic Services recycled more than 3.5 million tons of material. This metal, glass, plastic and paper is equal to 23 pound for every man, woman and child in the United States. Recycling the paper products alone is equivalent to saving 23 million trees.
