What to Recycle

Electronics Recycling

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency states electronic waste is now the fastest growing segment of our nation's garbage production. There are ways that each and every one of us can turn this around -- by recycling!

What to Recycle

According to the EPA, as many as 35% of households in America don't recycle. Less than 10% of businesses in the country aren't recycling either. This represents an immense opportunity not only to help save the environment and adopt green waste management policies, but save money and space while doing so. Flood Brothers Disposal serves over 150 communities in the Chicagoland and Nortern Illinois areas with their recycling needs -- homes as well as commercial and industrial businesses and construction sites. See Recycle Across America for more interesting and staggering statistics about recycling.

The examples of the impact of recycling will astound you. Recycling just 1 ton of cardboard trash can save up to 46 gallons of oil. One person has the opportunity, on average, to recycle over 25,000 cans in a lifetime -- think of how much soda you drink and soup you eat! About half of the food in the United States goes to waste. Glass can be produced and recycled an infinite number of times. The list goes on.Part of what you can do to make the recycling experience go smoothly is to recycle the proper trash items, as well as keeping them sorted. We've put together a helpful list of items that can (and cannot) be recycled.We thank you for joining us in our efforts to be the cleanest and greenest waste management and disposal company in Chicagoland.
