THE FACTS

Material waste directly affects the bottom line – net income. Organizations across the country are saving millions of dollars by reducing waste. For any business or organization, managing solid waste is a problem. Recyclable materials are now utilized by companies that manufacture everything from newsprint, boxboard, corrugated and printing paper to paint additives, asphalt fillers, plastic lumber, containers, carpet padding and automotive parts. An important factor of waste reduction programs is the environmental impact. Less solid waste means fewer landfills and a cleaner environment. The fact is, many companies that pay to have recyclable material hauled away are potentially missing a great opportunity because a majority of the material may have inherent value. At the very least a recycling program acts as a cost reduction. Under favorable market conditions it can produce a significant positive cash flow.

The relationships that General Mill Supply has built over the years with our clients provides us with solid and reliable sources for all types of paper,plastic, and metal recycling. In turn, customers get exactly what they need. We have a comprehensive method to evaluate your needs and target our services to where they are most effective.
