Recycling services
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that 70% of the waste created in the United States is recyclable, meanwhile only about 30% is actually recycled. At Metropolitan Recycling, we aim to change that within the NYC metropolitan area. We collect plastic containers, glass containers, paper and cardboard products, and metal (tin, aluminum, steel) cans. Not only does recycling save landfill space, but it also uses less energy than new manufacturing and maintains our reserves of certain valuable resources such as aluminum and steel.
