Mission Recycle offers Houston, TX residences and commercial businesses a variety of recycling service options including regularly scheduled and one-time pickups for all types of recyclable materials, including aluminum, plastic, scrap metal, and paper. Mission Recycle is committed to doing our part to reduce the amount of recyclable waste in landfills and help do our part for the environment. Did you know that aluminum is 100% recyclable? Aluminum is one of the most sustainable metal materials in the world because of this and takes significantly less energy to recycle aluminum than it does to make new material. Aluminum can also be recycled over and over without slowly breaking down over time, making it great for saving energy, limiting emissions, and lowering greenhouse gases. When plastic is recycled it is able to be repurposed into creating all sorts of useful and common products, from recycled plastic food storage to playground equipment to clothing. So much of our food containers and other daily use items are made of plastic that can be recycled, so do your part in recycling plastics to help save space in landfills for actual garbage. Scrap metal can be recycled and actually ends up going to a scrap metal yard where the metal is crushed and melted and then reformed into metal sheets. Recycling scrap metal helps reduce the amount of new metal manufactured, which helps cut down on costs and saves on energy and emissions. Paper recycling is often the most common type of recycling done every day because it includes paper products, newspapers, and cardboard. These products are commonly used to house or contain food products, mail, and shipping boxes. Recycled paper can be reused and repurposed in many ways. At Mission Recycle, we offer recycling services and pickup for all types of recyclable materials. Visit our website to learn more and sign up for regularly scheduled recycling pickups.
