Get Recycling Services Started in Your Business

Did You Know?

The business community is only recycling 16%-20% of their waste, compared to nearly 50% recycling by area residents. To increase that rate, Eco-Cycle is working to make it easier than ever for businesses to recycle.

Eco-Cycle has recycling accounts with over 900 Boulder County businesses, including offices, bars and restaurants. Materials collected include mixed office paper, newspaper, magazines, any amount of cardboard, phone books, glass, cans and plastic bottles.

Recycling in the Workplace is Easier than Ever!

Now Eco-Cycle business customers can mix all their paper types together in one bin. That means it's easier than ever to recycle corrugated cardboard, office paper, newspaper, magazines, junk mail and phone books. Mixing them in the same container reduces the number of containers that a business must house at their facility and keeps costs down with increased collection efficiency.

The Benefits of Recycling Go Beyond the Environment

Businesses that recycle do so, in part, because employees expect them to. Employees find pride in working for a company that embodies environmental values and focuses attention on its environmental impact and responsibilities. Customers also prefer to do business with stores, restaurants and companies that behave in an environmentally-friendly way. Engaging in "green" business practices and publicizing those practices can do wonders for a company's image and can attract both employees and customers in an environmentally-conscious community like ours.
