OLD CORRUGATED CONTAINERS (OCC)
Market Status: Slightly Up
Demand from box manufacturers remains healthy as inventories stay balanced heading into July. Businesses generating clean corrugated cardboard continue to benefit from favorable recycling conditions, making OCC one of the strongest and most consistent fiber commodities.
MIXED PAPER
Market Status: Stable
Mixed paper markets remain steady despite ongoing fluctuations in export demand. Domestic mills continue purchasing recovered fiber, although pricing remains below premium grades such as OCC. Proper material separation remains key to maximizing value.
PET PLASTIC
Market Status: Stable
PET markets remain relatively balanced as summer beverage consumption supports demand. However, competition from lower-cost virgin resin continues to limit significant price increases. High-quality, contamination-free PET continues to command the strongest value.
ALUMINUM USED BEVERAGE CANS (UBC)
Market Status: Strong
Aluminum continues to be one of the strongest-performing recyclable commodities. Domestic demand remains robust, supported by beverage production, sustainability initiatives, and the continued use of recycled aluminum in manufacturing.
STEEL SCRAP
Market Status: Stable
Ferrous scrap markets remain balanced as steel mills maintain measured purchasing ahead of the third quarter. While pricing has stabilized following earlier volatility, demand remains steady across manufacturing and construction sectors.
Overall Market Outlook
Recycling commodity markets continue to demonstrate positive momentum heading into July. Strong demand for aluminum and corrugated cardboard continues to support recycling values, while paper, plastics, and steel remain generally stable. Businesses that recover clean recyclable materials through efficient collection and processing can continue to reduce disposal costs while creating additional recycling revenue.
