Businesses play a critical role in recycling. In many cases, decreasing waste disposal costs by recycling can help reduce the bottom line. Offices are great places to capture items such as paper, newspapers, beverage containers, electronic equipment and batteries. Hospitality businesses, commercial stores and warehouses can generate a large amount of cardboard, plastic film and glass. Whether your business is considering front or back-of-house recycling, the first step is to analyze your waste stream and to see how much material you can divert from the landfill.
