Turtle Island Recycling focuses on recovering the most material with the least amount of effort or confusion for you.

All glass, plastic, paper cups, and metal containers - steel, for example - can be commingled into one single container. We also handle paper coffee cups, milk cartons, and tetra pack boxes.

We provide you with laminated signs to indicate materials to be collected. This way your staff will find it easier to participate.

We take the burden of choice away from you and place responsibility for proper sorting on us - your service provider. Yes. We do the sorting.

We handle most metals, glass, and plastics:

Metals:

• Aluminum beverage containers
• Steel containers

Plastics:

• PET (clear/coloured): For packing chemicals, pesticides, agro chemicals and other liquids.
• HDPE: High density polyethylene (thermoplastic). Used for blow-moulding (bottles, package containers, drums, fuel tanks for automobiles, toys and housewares.
• LDPE: Low density version of PE. Used for packaging like foils, trays and plastic bags for food and non-food purposes. Also protective coatings on paper, textiles, and other plastics, such as milk cartons.
