Do you have a drop off bin for textile, shoes, batteries or anything else
at your business premises?

Installing drop off bins at your business premises is a great way to serve your customers by giving them easy access to donation, as well as help the charities that will receive those items. We want to help you serve your community better by adding your information into our Recyclopedia, that way residents will find their nearest drop-off bins easily and you get the foot traffic coming to your business.

Donation pickup services offer a great option for residents to get rid of good condition items they no longer need, while also helping local and national charities at the same time. If you provide a pickup service in Westchester, and would like to reach newer clients, we’d love to help you in that regard.

We are inviting all recycling service providers to promote their services through our Recycle Right App. For example, if you are a scrap metal recycler, a paint recycler, or a mattress recycler, or collect any niche, special items for recycling, we’d love to include you in our Recyclopedia.

Become a Zero Waste Business

Make your company a zero waste company with TRUE certification.

TRUE, or ‘Total Resource Use and Efficiency’, is a Zero Waste certification, administered by U.S. Green Business Council that also manages the popular LEED certification programs. TRUE certification is used by facilities or offices to define, pursue and achieve their zero waste goals, cutting their carbon footprint and supporting public health.
