Niagara Recycling is a locally owned and operated non-profit social enterprise governed by a volunteer Board of Directors. Our primary objectives are to provide cost effective and efficient recycling services to the Niagara Region and to provide assistance to non-profit agencies that are involved in providing or facilitating opportunities and support for developmentally challenged adults living in the Niagara Region.

Niagara Recycling is the processing contractor for the Niagara Region, providing processing services to approximately 140,000 households covering 12 municipalities. In addition to being the Niagara Region’s recycling processing facility, Niagara Recycling provides collection and processing services for over 250 industrial and commercial customers, as well as more than 125 schools within the Niagara Region. Niagara Recycling also processes recyclable materials from other municipalities in Ontario.

Niagara Recycling assisted in the design and commissioning of the Region’s 100,000 square foot state-of-the-art recycling facility in Niagara Falls. The facility uses a combination of manual sorting by staff and innovative technology to sort and process recyclable materials in a two stream (Blue Box and Grey Box) sorting system. The operating consists of optical sorting technology for plastics and fibre, sorting lines, magnetic and eddy current separation systems, a plastic perforator, air separation systems and two high density baling systems.
