Why A Recycling Baler For Your Business?
Just about every business generates some type of waste as a byproduct of its day to day operations. Those same businesses pay haulers big bucks to transport their waste in bulk to landfills, adding on to an already burdened waste stream. But, much of that same waste can typically be baled and recycled. Companies that have implemented the use of recycling balers in their operations have realized the benefits of recycling using recycling balers.
If you’ve been wondering, here are a few reasons why you should consider either a vertical or horizontal recycling baler for your business:
Reduced Hauling Costs: By pulling recyclable waste out of your waste stream, you will have less material that needs to be hauled away each month. This results in fewer pulls of your dumpster or compactor and lower bills, saving you money on your bottom line.
New Revenue Streams: Not only do you pay less for hauling, using a recycling baler in your business will generate a new revenue stream for you when recyclers pick up valuable commodities like cardboard, aluminum, non-ferrous metals, shrink wrap, paper, plastics, and more!
Improved Work Areas: Baling up large stacks of recyclables helps to free up valuable floor space in work areas. Cleaner work areas with less debris means fewer hazards for employees, reduced fire risk, and less odor or vermin. This all helps to maintain a clean and safe work environment that nurtures productivity!
Labor Efficiency: Implementing recycling balers as a part of your company’s sustainability program helps to reduce the time needed to spend on waste handling. Think about a stack of cardboard boxes that used to need to be cut down to save space in a dumpster to maximize pulls. By recycling, you remove the cardboard from the dumpster, but also the need for employees to spend the time breaking down each box before depositing them into the baler loading door. This means your staff can spend less time on waste handling and more time on more valuable tasks that improve your business model!
Business Image: In today’s competitive marketplace, image is everything. Many consumers base their buying decisions on the values of the company making the products or services they want. Employees like to work at places that share their common values of social and eco-responsibility. Sustainable practices make work spaces healthier for both employees and consumers alike. Positioning your company as a leader in environmental stewardship will pay dividends far beyond some of the examples listed above.
Civic and Government Compliance: Using a recycling baler in your business helps ensure compliance with local regulations related to waste handling, curbside deposits, and more. It also helps you track your monthly expenditures and savings.
