What happens to the soft plastics?

We are partnered with multiple soft plastic recyclers to offer the best solution currently available in your area. For example, your soft plastics will then be turned back into oil, or additive for asphalt.

Once our drivers have them baled at one of our consolidation points, they’re transported to our recyclers.

Here are the outcomes:

  • At the recycling facility, soft plastics are shredded, then broken down into feedstock oil.

  • This oil will be further turned into resin, which enables for manufacturing of new plastic consumer goods e.g. packaging.
