About Yard

Greenstar Howell

Greenstar's Howell facility is located in Northwest Detroit, Michigan and specializes in the processing of aluminum cans, plastic bottles, corrugated containers and operation of one of the newest and most modern glass recycling facilities in the state. We have been in operation in Howell since the early eighties - providing innovative solutions to suit the needs of our local customers.We have the selling power of a large company, with great small town service.

Greenstar is a recycling pioneer in the greater Detroit area. We were the first to provide automatic dumping and the first to create a patented bag compactor for loading trailers. These innovations have created significant savings for our customers through reduced freight and manual labor costs.The operations are housed in a 15,000 squre foot building on over five acres with automated trailer dumping systems, trailer docks and are known regionally for consistent movement of recyclable materials. Greenstar-Howell supplies its customers a variety of specialized recycling equipment unique to the Michigan deposit environment, as well as trailers.

Cost Effective and Quality Driven

Greenstar provides cost effective and quality driven programs for several grades of recyclable materials including paper, plastic, metal and glass. Recyclables are sourced, sorted, cleaned, crushed or shredded, and processed into large bales for shipment to local and international recycling markets.

We are a leader in the field of single stream processing. Single stream recycling eliminates the need for residents to sort their recyclables - all can be mixed in one large bin for curbside collection. Single stream decreases the cost of collection and increases the convenience of recycling, typically resulting in increased volume.

From Glass Beads to Highway Markings

Developing new markets, products and applications for recovered commodities is essential to the success of recycling. Recovering the materials is only half the job—putting them to use as a feedstock for another product completes the loop.

We are committed to expanding and upgrading the end-use of recyclables. As an example, Greenstar operates a world class glass upgrading plant and small glass bead manufacturing plant from its operations in Pennsylvania. The majority of the glass beads are sold to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation to provide reflectivity for highway markings within the State of Pennsylvania.

Our new recycling facility in Akron, OH will include an innovative processing technology that will convert recovered plastic into synthetic crude oil. These services will be provided by local company Vadxx Energy, LLC through a joint venture with Greenstar. The companies will work together with the City of Akron to provide a domestic fuel and benefit the environment by repurposing recovered plastic products. This project will provide additional jobs and visitors to Akron while supporting an existing, local business.

Recycling Benefits:

  • Resource Conservation: Recycling conserves the world's scarce natural resources by using recycled materials instead of trees, metal ores, minerals, oil and other raw materials harvested from the earth.

  • Energy Conservation: Recycling saves energy by reducing the need to process new material, which usually requires more energy than the recycling process. Recycling aluminum saves 92% of the energy required to make the material from scratch.

  • Pollution Reduction: Products made using recycled rather than raw materials use significantly less energy, which translates into less burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil and natural gas. When burned, these fuels release pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxide, and carbon monoxide.

  • Land Conservation: Recycling minimizes the materials going to the landfill, thereby slowing the growth of landfills and preserving our land.

  • Economic Benefits: Recycling programs typically translate into reduced waste costs for businesses. Nationally, recycling is responsible for 850,000 U.S. jobs and $86 billion in gross annual sales.

  • Fewer Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Recycling reduces emissions of greenhouse gases that contribute to global climate change by using less energy to make new products, reducing incinerator and landfill emissions, and slowing the harvest of trees.

Why Recycle?

Recyclables need end markets. Most of the recovered paper, plastic, metals and glass are turned into usable end products. However, recovery rates increase and commodity prices stabilize when demand for recycled materials increases. Please buy recycled products.
