WHY RECYCLE WITH US?
At TRICO, recycling is about much more than simply dropping off paper or cardboard—it’s a process with a purpose. Our Recycling Department accepts magazines, newspapers, office paper, junk mail, soft- and hardcover books, and cardboard, while also providing confidential document destruction, where sensitive materials are securely stored before being shredded and baled. Pickup service is also available for document destruction.
What makes recycling with TRICO especially meaningful is the connection to our greater mission. TRICO exists to help individuals with disabilities maximize their abilities, develop skills, and become as self-reliant and self-supporting as possible through vocational rehabilitation and support services. Our recycling and production services are an important part of the work TRICO provides within our community. When you choose to bring your recyclable materials to TRICO, you’re supporting an organization where environmental responsibility and opportunities for people come together.
And every item recycled matters. Recycling reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills and incinerators, conserves valuable natural resources such as timber, water, and minerals, saves energy, and helps reduce pollution by decreasing the need to extract and process new raw materials. It also supports jobs and strengthens the recycling and manufacturing economy.
So when you recycle with TRICO, your impact goes beyond the recycling bin. You’re helping protect our environment, conserve resources for future generations, support our local community, and contribute to TRICO’s mission of creating meaningful opportunities for individuals with disabilities. One simple choice can make a difference in more ways than one.
