Packaging Materials Recovery in Phoenix, Arizona

How we handle packaging materials

Packaging is frequently the largest volume component of a load by weight, even when it's not the material being destroyed — arriving from beverage loads, liquidation pallets, and general destruction work alike. We separate and recover packaging alongside the destruction work itself: mixed film, shrink wrap, corrugated, and rigid plastics, rather than sending it out with general trash. This runs in parallel with our OCC/cardboard recovery line for clients whose loads combine both.

Treating packaging as waste is the default almost everywhere, and it is the single biggest missed diversion opportunity in a typical destruction load. Film and rigid plastics both have downstream homes if they are separated cleanly and kept dry, which is a sorting problem rather than a technical one.

For clients tracking landfill diversion as a sustainability metric, packaging recovery is usually where the number moves most, because it is the heaviest fraction of what arrives.
