How It Works:
- Specialized Dumpster Rentals: We offer specialized dumpster rentals specifically for collecting recyclable materials. These dumpsters are available for reservation by businesses and event organizers.
- Preparation of Recyclables: For a streamlined recycling process, we accept mixed recyclables directly in our bins. It’s important to ensure that these bins contain only the items that are accepted for recycling, as outlined in the Island Green Living flyer. This method makes recycling more convenient for our clients and supports effective sorting at our facilities.
- Transport to St. John (STJ) for Sorting: Once collected, the recyclables are transported to St. John, where they undergo a meticulous sorting process. This step is crucial to ensure that only the appropriate materials are recycled, reducing contamination.
