In an effort to reduce the waste produced in doing business, SF has undertaken a recycling program of all metals, paper, plastic, and styrofoam. The single stream recycling program offered by Waste Connections takes all of our plastic containers and glass bottles. We sell scrap metals such as aluminum, tin, and copper to PSC Metals, and are paid for it.
Our office paper and cardboard is gathered in containers supplied by SP Recycling at no cost to us, and we are then paid for it. Check out some fun facts on the benefits of recycling on their website as well. Recycling is getting easier and easier, and now it pays you!
Take a look at the chart to see our recycling data...
