You’ve got better things to do than figure out which bin takes what material. When you choose professional recycling services, your cardboard, metals, glass, and plastics get sorted correctly the first time.
No more second-guessing whether that container can actually be recycled. No more loading up your car for multiple trips to the facility. No more wondering if you’re following Suffolk County regulations properly.
Your materials get picked up on schedule, sorted by people who know what they’re doing, and processed through the right channels. That’s how recycling is supposed to work.
We’ve been handling recycling for Suffolk County families and businesses since 2000. We’re not the newcomers trying to figure things out as we go.
We know Islip’s recycling requirements. We understand what the Multi-Purpose Recycling Facility accepts and what needs different handling. When Suffolk County processes over 600,000 pounds of recyclables weekly, you want people who know exactly how that system works.
We handle everything from residential cleanouts to commercial recycling programs, and we do it with the same attention to proper sorting and environmental responsibility that’s kept us in business for over 20 years.
Here’s exactly what happens when you work with us. First, we discuss your project and determine the right container size for your recycling needs. Whether it’s a home cleanout or ongoing commercial service, we match you with the appropriate solution.
Next, we deliver your container on the scheduled date and time. Our drivers know Islip’s streets and can position containers safely without disrupting your property or neighbors.
Once you’ve filled the container, we handle pickup and transport everything to the appropriate recycling facilities. We sort materials properly, ensure compliance with local regulations, and make sure recyclables actually get recycled instead of ending up in landfills.

Our recycling services handle all the materials that Islip residents and businesses need to dispose of responsibly. Cardboard from deliveries and moving boxes, metal from appliances and construction projects, glass bottles and containers, and various plastics all get sorted and processed correctly.
We also handle electronics recycling, which is crucial since these items contain both valuable materials and hazardous substances that need special handling. In Suffolk County, where environmental protection is a priority, proper e-waste disposal isn’t just good practice—it’s essential for protecting our groundwater and local ecosystems.
For businesses, we provide ongoing recycling programs that keep your operation compliant with local regulations while demonstrating your commitment to environmental responsibility. Your customers notice these efforts, and it’s one more way to show you care about the community you serve.
We accept cardboard, paper, glass bottles and jars, metal cans, plastic bottles and containers, and electronics. Cardboard includes shipping boxes, packaging materials, and corrugated materials. Metal items include food cans, beverage cans, and small appliances.
For glass, we take bottles and jars but not window glass or mirrors, which require different handling. Plastic containers need to be bottles, jugs, or food containers—plastic bags and film aren’t accepted in regular recycling.
Electronics like computers, monitors, printers, and phones get special handling since they contain both valuable materials and substances that need careful processing. If you’re unsure about a specific item, just ask us before putting it in the container.
Container size depends on how much material you’re disposing of and your timeline. A 10-yard container works for small home cleanouts, garage organizing, or minor renovation projects. It holds about the same as 3-4 pickup truck loads.
For larger projects like whole-house cleanouts, business relocations, or construction jobs, you’ll want a 20 or 30-yard container. These handle significantly more material and prevent you from running out of space mid-project.
We help you estimate based on your specific situation. It’s better to have slightly more space than you think you need rather than running out and having to schedule a second container. Our team can walk through your project and recommend the right size based on what we’ve seen with similar jobs.
We sort materials and send them to appropriate recycling facilities, not landfills. Cardboard goes to paper mills, metals go to scrap processors, glass gets cleaned and reprocessed, and plastics go to facilities that turn them into new products.
This sorting process is why working with experienced recycling services matters. Materials that get mixed incorrectly often end up contaminating entire loads, which then go to landfills instead of being recycled.
We know which facilities accept which materials and how they need to be prepared. Electronics get processed through certified e-waste recyclers that handle hazardous materials safely and recover valuable components. The whole point is keeping materials in circulation rather than burying them.
We typically deliver containers within 24-48 hours of your call, sometimes same-day if you reach us early enough and we have availability. Delivery timing depends on our current schedule and your location within Suffolk County.
Islip is in our primary service area, so we usually have good availability for local deliveries. We’ll give you a specific delivery window when you schedule, and our drivers will call ahead to confirm timing.
If you need container delivery by a specific date for your project timeline, let us know when you call. We can often accommodate scheduling requests, especially if you give us a few days’ notice. Emergency situations sometimes require different arrangements, but we work with you to find solutions.
We inspect containers before pickup and will let you know if there are materials that can’t be processed with the rest. Small amounts of non-recyclable items usually aren’t a problem—we can separate them out.
Large amounts of contamination or hazardous materials are different. Items like paint, chemicals, or large amounts of regular trash can contaminate the entire load. In those cases, we’ll discuss options for proper disposal, which might involve additional fees.
The best approach is asking questions upfront. If you’re not sure whether something belongs in recycling, call us before putting it in the container. We’d rather spend a few minutes on the phone explaining what goes where than dealing with contamination issues later.
When you factor in your time, vehicle costs, and multiple trips to different facilities, professional recycling service usually costs less overall. Plus, you avoid the risk of injury from lifting heavy items or the hassle of figuring out which facility accepts what materials.
Consider that Islip’s recycling facility has specific hours and restrictions. You might need several trips to dispose of everything properly, and your time has value. Gas, vehicle wear, and the physical effort add up quickly.
Our pricing includes delivery, pickup, proper sorting, and transport to appropriate facilities. You get everything handled correctly in one simple transaction. For businesses, this also includes compliance with local regulations and documentation if needed for environmental reporting.
