Happy #AmericaRecyclesDay! ?? In 2023, GreenWaste diverted over 3,000 tons of aluminum from the landfill. That’s enough to make 181,000,000 new 15g recycled aluminum cans! At the GreenWaste San Jose Material Recovery Facility, we use next-gen technology like eddy current separators to separate non-ferrous material from ferrous material, helping ensure the aluminum you put in your blue cart is properly sorted for recycling into new products made in America. #NationalRecyclingDay #aluminumcans #aluminumrecycling #recycle #reuse #recover #sustainability #circulareconomy #agreenerway

GreenWaste is proud to be a Sustainability Partner of Trellis Group’s #VERGE24, the leading #climatetech event accelerating solutions to the most pressing challenges of our time!

GreenWaste is honored to be recognized by the Sacramento County Environmental Commission for our dedication to environmental stewardship! ? In 2023, our Sacramento team transitioned to 100% renewable or alternative fuel in their off-road heavy equipment fleet. The team has also refurbished secondhand processing machines for use at the GreenWaste Florin Perkins Resource Recovery Facility and produces recycled-content landscaping material. Recovering, recycling, and reusing waste materials in the most innovative and environmentally responsible ways is core to who we are. #environmentalstewardship #sustainability #recycle #reuse #recover #circulareconomy #agreenerway
