James Recycling

James Recycling is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization

At James Recycling we help keep the earth clean by recycling difficult-to-recycle plastics while empowering adults with developmental differences to find independence and purpose through meaningful employment.

We are doing our part to help the environment and our community through our recycling drop off depot and our frequent pop-ups, where we collect material that complements recycling offered by local garbage haulers. Our goal is to make it easy to recycle more! Please contact us with suggestions on additional resources we can provide or other ways that James Recycling can make the process fast, simple, and convenient for you.
