Shipments of waste are sent to one of the local TerraCycle Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs). When a shipment from a collector arrives at one of the MRFs, it is scanned to record the shipment information, date, weight, and what material it contained.

Materials are sorted based on material characteristics and composition, using a wide variety of sorting technologies. Once sorted by category, the different material types are cleaned and then sent to third-party partners to process the materials into usable forms.

After recycling the waste into raw material, it’s sold to manufacturing companies who produce the end product and complete the recycling journey.
