We had a great time at the 2015 Paper & Plastic Recycling Conference. Our thanks to sponsors Recycling Today and the PSI Chapter of ISRI for hosting this engaging and enlightening event. There was a wealth of great information shared during this conference, but there were 3 surprising stats that stood out from the rest. Read this article to discover what they are and why they stood out to me.

Every recycle job is unique in some way, and sometimes the standardized features of commercial bulk material collection containers don't fit the bill. It's like trying to stick a round peg into a square hole.

Unfortunately, many recyclers we talk to aren't aware that they can get custom container solutions to their exact specifications or they think it's too expensive. So, they continue to struggle with inconvenient and ineffective processes.

However, by thinking beyond the usual options, recyclers can solve a problem, accomplish a goal, win new business, or retain a valuable account.

One of my favorite things about working with recyclers and waste haulers is hearing the stories of how their businesses were founded. Considering most people think recycling was invented in the last twenty-five years or so, it’s fascinating to hear about the scrap businesses that go back several generations.

Recently, a scrap paper recycling customer wanted to evaluate the actual cost of using commercial collection containers instead of just looking at the purchase price. Good idea. As always, there’s more to cost of ownership than purchase price.

One of the major paper recycling companies needed of 100 "Meese-style" carts to replace worn out units and beef up their inventory. They were looking for the best pricing, lead time, and guarantee as usual, but were also concerned about the durability of the base, casters, and top lip. They recognized that having the right carts can reduce cart re-orders as well as increase productivity and efficiency - a huge savings all around.
