Our advanced Materials Recovery Facilities process up to 145,000 tons of recyclables annually using automated sorting technologies. We manage comprehensive recycling programs for paper, cardboard, glass, plastics, and metals, achieving over 50% recovery rate improvements in recent years. Educational initiatives and community engagement programs complement our technical capabilities to maximise recycling effectiveness.
Waste to Energy
Our waste-to-energy facilities convert non-recyclable waste into renewable energy through efficient combustion processes. The Fort Lauderdale facility alone processes 2,250 tons daily, generating enough electricity to power 41,000+ homes annually. This approach diverts waste from landfills, recovers 15,000+ tons of metals yearly, and displaces fossil fuel consumption while operating under strict environmental regulations.
Educational Tours
We offer guided educational tours at our Dallas and Houston MRFs to demonstrate modern recycling processes. Groups witness the complete journey of recyclables from collection to sorted materials ready for manufacturing. These interactive experiences cater to schools, businesses, and sustainability groups, promoting better recycling practices through hands-on learning.

Unimpressed. First day of pickup form your company and youve broken the container and a completely rude pickup person.

Report
Sent three guys and two trucks to pick a pile of leaves smaller than a toddler. Proceeded to stay parked outside of my house just having a good ol' time with both vehicles running. Seems like a waste of equipment, time, and money. I really don't think one man on a crane truck needs to be observed by two other guys taking pictures and video. The best part of all of this is that they didn't even pick up all of the debris. Now it'll scatter through my and my neighbors yards unless we pick it up and dispose of it. Which at this rate seems like what we should have done in the first place. Thanks FCC

Very disorganized office servicing Rowlett, TX. Hard to get on phone, do not return calls and when they have errors on the billing - they state they will fix, then do not. More than 1 year, they are still billing me for a pickup that was done at a neighbors house and my service at a rate higher than our contract and a month after I discontinued it.

Approximately every three months you'll miss my trash pickup. then it takes me calling everyday to my Polk county representative to hopefully get it picked up within 5 days. this has been an ongoing thing for approximately a year if not longer. I am highly unsatisfied with the services I get from your business.
