Sharp Downward Trend in Material Values for Quarter Ending September 30

SEATTLE (Waste Advantage): The NERC quarterly MRF Values Survey for the period July – September 2022, showed a sharp downward trend in values. This is the 14th in NERC’s series of quarterly reports on the market value of commodities from MRFs in the Northeast. This report includes information from eight states: Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Virginia.

These survey results reflect the differing laws and collection options in the participating states.  Four of the states have beverage container deposit laws.  As a result, fewer glass bottles, PET bottles and aluminum cans are processed in MRFs in those states. Those MRFs are also likely to have less revenue from those recyclables.  In addition, the report reflects a mix of single stream, dual stream and source separation to collect recyclables with single stream being the most common approach.  The type of collection used will have an impact on MRF design and operation. Thus, the data from this report reflects the unique blend of facilities and statewide laws in the reporting states.
