ECOLOGY

Not all items are recyclable but we feel we are on the right track

to a much greener future.

There are many ways we can show love to the environment. We are able to resell your generous donations to not only raise funds for a charity but to keep tons of re sellable items out of our local landfill. Any unsellable clothing or linens are taken to a local textile recycling program and our truck dispatcher carefully considers pickup and deliveries routes to prevent over use of fuel consumption. We want to keep our landscape as green as possible - Every Footprint Matters!

Upcycling

Through the years, we have tried to impress on our community the idea that an item has the potential to become something else! Something as simple as a coat of paint, recovering a chair or sofa, turning an end table into a doggie bed! There is literally no end to the possibilities to create new treasures for your living space.

Batteries

Bring down your dead batteries!

​

We have partnered with Call2Recycle to help our environment by collecting many types and sizes of batteries! When batteries are recycled, valuable metals can be recovered and used into new products such as silverware, pots and pans, new batteries, and even golf clubs!

​

Bring down any amount to help keep this toxic item out of our landfills. Wet cells are not accepted at this time but may be recycled through an auto parts store.
