The Recycling Process

How the Recycling Process Works

Set Out Your Recyclables

El Paso residents deposit their recyclables into their bins and set them out curbside on their designated pickup day.

Collection and Sorting

BARCO trucks collect the materials and transport them to the material recovery facility. There, employees and sorting equipment separate paper, cardboard, plastics, aluminum, and tin, then prepare the materials for shipment.

Reuse Through Manufacturing

Once sorted and baled, recyclable materials are sent to specialized facilities where they are processed into new products. This helps reduce waste, conserve raw materials, and give used items a new purpose.

FAQ's

Reasons to Recycle

The average American generates 1 ton of trash per year. We can reduce that amount by 35% or more by recycling. It’s important to limit the use of landfills in whatever way possible.Recycling reduces our demands on natural resources. By reusing materials, we conserve not only our finite resources but also save energy.

Recycling creates jobs in communities across the country. Approximately 757,000 recycling and reuse jobs add $38 billion in wages annually. It also creates over $5 billion in tax revenue for municipal and state governments.

Extracting raw materials produces a lot of pollution. Recycling reduces the energy required and pollution caused by extraction and production. It also keeps the price of raw materials lower. By using one collection truck for recyclables, we cut down on emissions and greenhouse gases.

By reducing the amount of waste in landfills, we can also reduce greenhouse gases. Reduced production costs keep the cost of end products lower than if materials were created using raw materials.
