Directory Updates

This directory will be updated as state funds are available. Every effort was made to contact profit and not-forprofit recycling centers in Wyoming. Any errors or omissions are unintentional. A form (which may be copied) is provided in this directory for revisions, additions of new organizations, recycling centers, and businesses which utilize recyclable waste to produce saleable materials. Updated information should be directed to:


P. O. Box 404

Green River, Wyoming 82935

307-875-2893

FAX 307-875-5179 email: myra@peakenvironmental.com

Goals of this directory are to provide information to the public and private sectors and the general public, to improve economic development in recycling operations, and to enhance natural resource management.

Inquiries and Information

Prior to delivering recyclables to a center, the center should be contacted to determine current hours, location, accepted materials, or packaging requirements. Each recycling center adjusts in response to market conditions.

General inquiries and information requests regarding recycling should be directed to community contacts, public interest organizations, local recycling centers, or the following:

Recyclables' Value

Since the value of many recyclables and the cost of handling and transportation to end-markets are substantial, most centers do not pay money for items such as glass or plastic. Some centers pay for aluminum and ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Centers should be contacted to determine if any money is paid for accepted materials.

Preparation and Packaging of Recyclables

Each type of material must be separated, e.g. glass cannot be combined with aluminum, and materials should be deposited in appropriate containers. Each center has specific preparation and packaging requirements which are based on quality control requirements established by the purchaser of the recyclables and by quality standards for end products. Although general guidelines are listed, the individual center should be contacted regarding preparations and packaging.

Telephone Books: Look in your new telephone book for information about recycling your old one. Telephone books are usually collected for recycling during only the two months of the year following distribution of your new books.

Rechargeable Batteries and Cell Phones : Due to the numerous locations available to recycle rechargeable batteries and cell phones, they are not listed individually in this Directory. Go to www.rbrc.org or www.gooddeedfoundation.org/aarp or recyclewirelessphones.com to find the closest store for battery and cell phone recycling. ii

Vehicle batteries : Stores which sell batteries are required by law to accept one battery for each one purchased.

Some stores will accept additional batteries, and some battery dealers will pay a small amount for batteries. All battery dealers have not been listed due to the large number of stores which accept batteries.

Used motor oil: Used oil may be accepted by some service stations and occasionally for a fee since the station may be charged for used oil collection. Some municipal maintenance operations also accept used motor oil and may also charge a fee depending on the quantity disposed.

Used motor oil must not be mixed with other vehicle fluids.

Used motor oil should not be deposited after hours at any location.

Newspapers: Some centers require that newspapers be bagged or tied with string.

Office paper and office pack: Paper clips and, in some cases, staples should also be removed. Glossy and glue bound publications should not be included with office paper or newspapers. Envelopes and "junk mail" should not be included unless specified. Self-adhesive labels (labels which are not water soluble) should be removed from office paper and office pack. Materials which are acceptable for office pack vary from center to center. Check with local recyclers to determine which paper products they will accept and how materials should be separated and packaged.

Corrugated cardboard: Cardboard must be corrugated, clean, and free of debris.

Flat, gray cardboard: The few centers which accept gray, flat cardboard (e.g., cereal boxes) require that it be clean and free of food and other debris.

Glass: Glass beverage and food containers should be rinsed and clean of food or other material. Labels are acceptable. Window glass, mirrors, and drinking glasses cannot be accepted. Metal and plastic lids and metal rings must be removed. Most centers require separation of glass by color.

»»NOTE: Many centers cannot accept green or blue glass.««

Aluminum: Aluminum cans should be free of debris and liquid. At most centers, scrap aluminum should be separated from aluminum cans. Scrap aluminum such as aluminum doors and aluminum lawn chairs are accepted by most scrap metal recyclers.

Plastics: Plastics must be clean, dry, and of the specific type accepted by the center. Some centers accept only natural (clear or white) plastics and cannot accept colored plastic containers. Some centers also have limitations about accepting plastic containers which may have been used for motor oil or vegetable oil.

The Society of the Plastics Industry (SPI) has developed this voluntary plastic container coding system which must be referenced prior to taking plastics to a recycling center:

«« Many recycling centers cannot accept green or blue glass.

Contact your local center to determine if they accept glass,

and if so, which colors are acceptable. Most centers do not

accept glass such as door and window glass, windshield glass,

and drinking glasses since those products are not made of the

same materials as glass beverage containers. »»

«« Many communities have local groups which volunteer

their time to operate local recycling centers. Wyoming has

many public interest organizations with activities related to

environmental affairs. Become active with recycling efforts

in your local community. »»

«« Give extra safety pins to organizers of community foot races

and walks or to dance and theater groups. »»

«« Buy in bulk if you use in bulk. Buying in bulk often results in less

discarded packaging. Don't buy more than you will use or you

may contribute to the waste problem. »»

«« Ask businesses and government agencies what they are doing

to recycle, reuse, or buy recycled products. Patronize and

support those who are involved with recycling. »»

«« Don't forget to recycle metal products such as lawn

chairs, aluminum doors, or car parts. Scrap metal

recyclers can accept many types of metal items. Some

communities offer pick-up of used cars or other large

metal items for no charge or a small fee. »»

«« When traveling, keep your recyclables until you can find

recycling centers for them. When staying at motels or

campgrounds, ask where you can recycle newspapers, glass,

or aluminum beverage containers. »»

«« Reuse paper or plastic bags when you go to the store. Many

grocery stores offer a few cents off your purchase when you

reuse a bag. Paper and plastic bags can also be reused by

local thrift stores or used book stores. »»

«« Reuse rubber bands, paper clips, safety pins, and other

fasteners. Reuse small glass jars or a drawer organizer

to help you find these when you need them most. »»

«« Reuse glass containers for homemade products such as jelly

or canned foods. Give homemade products as Christmas gifts,

and reuse glass jars and bottles as the "gift box". »»

«« Give your extra rubber bands to schools or the local newspaper

for reuse. »»

«« Check with your local recycling center about whether

glossy newspaper inserts can be recycled with newspapers.

Some markets will accept glossy inserts, and others do not. »»

«« Share your newspapers and magazines with friends and

neighbors. Offer to take your neighbors', friends', or

co-workers' recyclables to the recycling center. By sharing

and helping each other you will save time, natural resources,

and money. You may also make some new friends. »»

«« Paper and plastic bags can be used as liners in waste cans. »»

«« Reuse materials whenever possible. Find ways to extend

the lives of furniture and appliances. »»
