In 2007, our paper mills consumed over 3 million tons of recycled paper provided by our Recycling Division and mill fiber supply group. We not only collect and process your materials, but for a significant percentage we will also be the end user.
Our use of recovered fiber is achieved through a combination of four recycling program offerings:
Paper Retriever Program The "Green & Yellow Bin Program". This program offers a community based fund raising recycling service to non-profit organizations such as schools, churches and civic organizations. With over 24,000 containers, this program provides a huge economy of scale that has allowed us to offer a very competitive commercial recycling program. In 2006, the Paper Retriever® program paid nearly $5.0 million to schools, churches & non-profit organizations.
Commercial Recycling Program The EcoRewards Commercial Recycling Program was designed to specifically address the needs of the business recycling customer by taking a comprehensive consultative approach to helping customers maximize their waste diversion and cost savings. From your desk, to the curb, to the recycling mill and back, we are a proven and trusted Full Circle Recycler that will design, support, and optimize a successful program for your company. Brokerage Program As a very large consumer of recyclable materials, our brokerage group helps ensure a constant supply of fiber to our mills by procuring additional tons from waste haulers and other 3rd parties. Our brokerage group has extensive relationships that allow it to manage almost any type of recyclable material.
