Cardboard Recycling Setauket NY

What Gets Recycled vs. Disposed

Clean cardboard and paper materials get recycled through our network of processing centers on Long Island. Metal components go to scrap recycling facilities. Plastics get sorted by type and sent to appropriate processors.

Contaminated materials that can’t be recycled get disposed of at licensed facilities, not mixed in with recyclable materials. This keeps recycling streams clean and actually functional.

In Setauket and throughout Suffolk County, recycling regulations are getting stricter. Materials need to be clean and properly sorted. We handle the sorting and make sure everything goes to the right place, so you don’t have to worry about compliance issues or materials getting rejected at facilities.

What size container do I need for my recycling project in Setauket?

Container size depends on your project scope and space constraints. A 10-yard container works for small cleanouts or renovation projects. 20-yard containers handle medium-sized jobs like office cleanouts or moderate construction debris.

30-yard containers are right for larger projects like full property cleanouts or commercial renovations. 40-yard containers handle major construction or demolition projects with significant material volumes.

We help you choose the right size based on your specific project. Getting the size right means you’re not paying for space you don’t use or dealing with overflow when the container’s too small.

We actually recycle materials through established relationships with recycling centers throughout Suffolk County. Your cardboard goes to paper processing facilities. Clean metal gets processed at scrap recycling centers.

Our team sorts materials during pickup to separate recyclables from waste. This isn’t just dumping everything together and calling it recycling. Materials get directed to appropriate facilities based on type and condition.

Clean cardboard, paper, and metal materials are recyclable. Plastic containers and bottles can be recycled if clean and dry. Construction materials like wood and drywall have specific disposal requirements.

We provide clear guidelines when delivering your container and help sort materials during pickup. This ensures recyclable materials stay clean and actually get processed rather than contaminated and sent to landfills.

We typically deliver containers within 1-2 business days of your request, depending on current schedule and container availability. Same-day delivery is sometimes possible for urgent projects.
