You know that pile of cardboard from your renovation isn’t going anywhere on its own. And figuring out Suffolk County’s recycling rules feels like learning a foreign language.
Here’s what happens when you call us: your materials get picked up on schedule, sorted properly, and recycled according to local regulations. No more wondering if you’re doing it right. No more weekend trips to three different facilities because glass goes here, cardboard goes there, and everything else goes somewhere else entirely.
Your project stays on track. Your property stays clean. And you actually have time for the work that matters to you.
We’ve been handling recycling and waste management in Bellport and throughout Suffolk County since 2000. We’re the family-owned company that contractors and homeowners call when they need things done properly the first time.
We’ve watched Suffolk County’s recycling requirements change over the years. We know which facilities accept what materials, when the rules shifted from single-stream to dual-stream, and how to keep your project compliant without the paperwork headaches.
When you work with us, you’re working with people who live here too. We understand the local requirements because we deal with them every day.
Call us at 516-826-5544 and tell us what you’ve got. Cardboard from a move? Construction debris that needs proper sorting? Commercial materials that have been piling up? We’ll recommend the right container size and schedule a drop-off that works with your timeline.
We deliver the container when we say we will. You fill it with your recyclable materials – no need to separate everything yourself. When you’re ready, we pick it up and handle the sorting and proper disposal according to Suffolk County regulations.
Everything gets recycled through the right channels. You get documentation if you need it for your business. And your next project starts with a clean slate instead of yesterday’s mess.
Ready to get started?
We recycle cardboard, paper, metals, and plastics according to Suffolk County’s current dual-stream requirements. That means paper and cardboard go one way, metals and plastics another – and we make sure everything ends up where it belongs.
For Bellport businesses, this matters more than you might think. Suffolk County has been cracking down on contaminated recyclables, and up to half of what some companies collect ends up unusable because it wasn’t handled properly. That drives up costs and defeats the purpose of recycling in the first place.
We work with local facilities that we’ve partnered with for years. Your materials get processed correctly, you avoid the fines and complications that come with improper disposal, and you can actually point to real environmental impact from your recycling efforts.
We handle cardboard, paper, metals, and plastics according to Suffolk County’s dual-stream recycling requirements. This means paper and cardboard are processed separately from metals and plastics – something that changed in 2018 when Suffolk County moved away from single-stream recycling.
We don’t accept glass in our containers since Suffolk County dropped glass from curbside collection. Glass bottles and jars need to go to specific drop-off locations like Brookhaven Town Hall or the Holtsville Ecology Center. We can point you to the right facilities if you’ve got glass to dispose of.
If you’re not sure whether something can be recycled, just ask when you call. We’d rather spend two minutes explaining the rules than have your entire load rejected because of one contaminated item.
Suffolk County switched to dual-stream recycling in 2018 because too much material was getting contaminated in single-stream systems. Now paper and cardboard get collected and processed separately from metals and plastics.
When you use our service, we handle the sorting for you. Paper, newspapers, magazines, and cardboard go through one processing stream. Aluminum cans, steel cans, and plastic bottles go through another. This separation happens at our end, so you don’t need to maintain two different containers on your property.
The reason this matters is that contaminated recyclables – where different materials get mixed improperly – often end up in landfills anyway. Dual-stream recycling reduces contamination rates and means more of your materials actually get recycled instead of thrown away.
Yes, we work with businesses throughout Bellport and Suffolk County. Commercial recycling often involves larger volumes and more consistent scheduling than residential projects, and we can set up regular pickups that work with your business operations.
For businesses, proper recycling isn’t just about environmental responsibility – it can actually reduce your overall waste management costs. When materials get recycled instead of going to landfills, you avoid higher disposal fees and can often reduce the frequency of your regular garbage pickups.
We’ll assess your typical volume, recommend the right container sizes, and set up a schedule that keeps your business running smoothly. Whether you need weekly pickups or just occasional service for larger cleanouts, we can structure something that makes sense for your operation.
We offer five different container sizes: 6-yard, 10-yard, 20-yard, 30-yard, and 40-yard containers. The right size depends on your project scope and the space available on your property.
A 6-yard container works well for small office cleanouts or residential projects with moderate amounts of cardboard and paper. A 10-yard handles most home renovation recycling needs. The 20-yard and 30-yard containers are popular for larger residential projects or small commercial jobs. The 40-yard container handles major commercial cleanouts or construction projects with significant recyclable materials.
We can help you choose the right size when you call. It’s better to go slightly larger than to end up with overflow – but we also don’t want you paying for space you don’t need. Our experience with similar projects in Bellport helps us recommend the most cost-effective option.
We typically deliver containers within 1-2 business days of your call, depending on our current schedule and your location in Bellport. If you need same-day or next-day service, call us early in the day and we’ll see what we can arrange.
Our delivery trucks are sized to access most residential driveways and commercial properties, but we’ll confirm access when you call. We’ve been serving Suffolk County for over 20 years, so we know the local streets and can usually anticipate any delivery challenges before they become problems.
When we deliver, we’ll place the container exactly where you want it – whether that’s in your driveway, on the street (with proper permits), or in a designated area of your commercial property. We want the container positioned so it’s convenient for you to use but doesn’t interfere with your daily operations.
After we pick up your container, materials go to our processing partners who specialize in Suffolk County’s dual-stream recycling requirements. Paper and cardboard get sent to facilities that turn them into new paper products and packaging materials. Metals and plastics go to different processors who clean and remake them into new products.
This is important because not all recycling actually gets recycled. When materials are contaminated or sent to the wrong facilities, they often end up in landfills anyway. We work with established processors who have the right equipment and certifications to handle materials properly.
For businesses that need documentation for environmental reporting or compliance purposes, we can provide pickup receipts and processing certificates that show where your materials went and how they were recycled. This helps you demonstrate real environmental impact rather than just good intentions.
