Recycling Resources:
All of us here at 3R Green Building Solutions, LLC are very passionate about recycling materials that we all use. Beyond being a part of our company name, we are committed to providing our customers with a wide array of resources to help them become more aware of what and where they can recycle various materials.
:: Environmental Protection Agency has a lot of great recycling information as well as resources as to how to recycle various materials.
:: Recycling Centers is a great resource for finding various recycling centers near you. Just click on their link and type in your zip code.
:: The Recycling Center is another great resource for finding various recycling centers near you. It also has a directory for finding recycling products as well.
:: Earth 911 has links to recycling centers, different ways to reuse products, and other great resources.
:: For packaging peanuts, the best thing to do is to take them into a packaging, shipping, or moving company to reuse them, or reuse them yourself to send a package. Not all peanuts are made from plastic, some are made from vegetable starch and easily dissolve in water. You can safely and easily put these in your compost.
:: For Styrofoam blocks that are used for protective packaging, please contact The Alliance of Foam Packaging Recyclers for more information on how to recycle them.
:: Recycling CFL’s is very important because of the mercury that they contain. This mercury is very harmful to the environment when disposed on in landfills. Please look for a proper recycling facility using the databases above to dispose of your CFL’s. You can also go to Lighter Foot Step to find out more information.
