Many projects produce material that does not need to end up in a landfill. Clean cardboard, scrap metal, untreated wood and concrete can often be processed and reused. Recycling dumpster rental in Agua Fria, NM from Fancy Sanitation & Containers helps homeowners, contractors and businesses keep those materials separate.
01Materials Often Collected for Recycling
- Corrugated cardboard and packaging
- Scrap metal, including aluminum and steel
- Clean, untreated wood and pallets
- Concrete, brick and masonry
- Certain plastics, depending on facility acceptance
What can be recycled depends on the facilities that receive the load. We confirm accepted materials when you book so your container is set up correctly.
02Why Separate Recyclables
Keeping recyclable material apart from general waste can support sustainability goals and may be required for some commercial or construction projects. Clean, sorted loads are easier for facilities to process. Mixed or contaminated loads may need to be handled as general waste instead.
03Keeping Loads Clean
Contamination is the most common reason a recycling load cannot be processed as planned. To keep your container usable:
- Load only the material type agreed on at booking
- Keep food, liquids and trash out of the container
- Flatten cardboard and remove excess plastic wrap
- Remove nails and hardware from wood when practical
- Communicate with your team about what belongs in the bin
04Choosing a Container Size
Recycling needs vary widely. A business breaking down boxes each day may need a compact container with frequent pickups. A construction site separating metal or wood may use a larger roll-off. Concrete recycling calls for a smaller container because of weight. Tell us the material and estimated volume and we will suggest a size.
05Recycling for Businesses and Job Sites
Retailers, warehouses, restaurants and contractors often benefit most from recycling containers because they generate consistent volumes of the same material. Recurring service can keep recyclables moving without taking up valuable space.
06Placement and Access
Place recycling containers where staff can easily reach them, ideally near the source of the material. Clear labeling and a convenient location make it easier for everyone to use the right container. Keep the lid or cover closed when rain is expected, since wet paper and cardboard can be harder to recycle, and check the container regularly for items that do not belong so contamination is caught early.
