Needs
We are huge recyclers. We take so many things. Check out our list. If you have a group, use our collection calendar all year long! Our food recovery network is vast, but we can always use your no-longer-wanted food to serve up great meals. And we have wish lists on Amazon to round out what we can't get reliably.
We are making a change to clothing recycling. We need sizes on everything. Dealing with items with no sizes is not fruitful for us. You can write it on indelibly before drop-off. You know the size better than we do! Help us save valuable time and avoid waste in this way!
New! Direct Access to our inventory list!
The inventory system shows amounts needed urgently as well as amounts we need to stock up on regularly kept items. Not everything is here yet but it will be!
Wondering how much recyclers and shoppers matter?
