Commingled Recycling

Recycling is the process of collecting and “sorting” readily recycling that would be thrown away in the garbage or landfill. The recycling is processed so it can be turned into new products. Recycling can benefit your community and environment because it prevents pollution by reducing the need to collect raw materials and prevents harmful chemicals that are released from landfill Gas Energy and Greenhouse gasses.

BWRS supports diverting readily recycling out of the landfill into recycling. We offer education, resources and training for the proper disposal of recyclables in your city to help support source sorting.
