Tor Can Waste Reduction Management

Tor Can Waste Reduction Management has gained a reputation in the community and waste management industry as a company focused on service and respectful toward the needs of the environment. This reputation was earned in an industry governed by large multinationals, with deep pockets and a strong determination to keep their industry open to a select few.
It was this highly competitive industry that Liborio Gurreri chose to establish Tor Can Waste Reduction Management Inc. The company officially opened its doors for business in 1999 with one prevailing philosophy “only by exceeding our customers’ expectations can we hope to have the opportunity to earn their business another day.” This philosophy has served Tor Can well. By focusing on the most minuete of customer details it has created a company with a flawless bond of trust, customers have embrace and reputations continue to be built on.
Today, Tor Can enjoys one of the highest customer retention ratings in the greater Toronto area. This, coupled with a continual stream of client base referrals, has provided steady growth and increased market share in the Southern Ontario property management sector.

RECYCLING & ORGANIC SERVICES

Tor Can Waste Reduction Management offers a variety of services specializing in waste reduction initiatives. With an ever-increasing focus on all things green, companies are being asked to view their activities mindful not only for their bottom line but the preservation of the communities we inhabit. We not only handle all categories of waste stream management, but are working tirlessly toward a circular waste environment viewing each stream of waste as a renewable resource.

Tor Can provides a recycling service that uses 95-gallon totes. The tote service provides a means to sort and handle plastic, bottles, paper and cans. Each waste stream is clearly marked for ease of recognition. These totes are placed in common-area locations throughout the desired facility, taking advantage of tenant and employee traffic flow. All recycling is disposed of through processing facilities, licensed and governed by the Ministry of the Environment, ensuring strict compliance. Clearly all successful recycling programs revolve around vigilance and repetition. The public at large has a strong desire to do their part; however, convenience and simplicity remains the key while repetition of one's message fuels the program's success.
