Commercial Recycling in Offices and Office Buildings

An office worker generates, on the average, 0.75 to 1.5 pounds of office waste daily. Trash from offices can make up 50% or more of a community’s waste stream. Most office waste consists of various forms of paper, though smaller quantities of other materials such as plastic, metal, glass, and food waste also end up in the office trash can.

Republic/Southland is confident that much of your office waste can be reused or recycled. By including the 3R’s, REDUCE, REUSE, and RECYCLE, our recycling program helps office workers become aware of how much waste is generated and what can be done to conserve resources for a more environmentally friendly office.

Establishing a recycling program requires planning and organization, but is not difficult or time-consuming. The Republic/Southland team helps you recognize the program’s benefits in the long run, as your business makes more efficient use of materials, energy, and money.

Let Republic/Southland help you to better manage your waste streams and make your building more sustainable for a Greener Future. Contact us about Commercial Recycling to get started today.
