A company that replaces automotive windshields on a large scale and has a warehouse with over 100 field shops. AOWR implemented a multi-tier recycling program.
3,640,000 pounds of waste diverted annually with AOWR's assistance.
STEP ONE
We confirmed glass extraction from the waste stream.
STEP TWO
Wood extraction was confirmed.
STEP THREE
Optimizing cardboard extraction.
STEP FOUR
To realign their landfill waste price and levels, based on these extractions.
The end result was more than a 40% cost reduction in their landfill waste expense (based on volume and cost reduction), plus the benefit of rebates for their recycled commodities.
Operations were not affected as nothing changes beyond choosing different container at the applicable locations. Costs went down, recycling went up, rebates are received.
