Material Recovery Facilities

Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs) are specialized plants where recyclable materials, like paper, plastic, and metals, are sorted and processed. After being collected from households or businesses, the items are delivered to MRFs, where they are sorted by type, cleaned, and prepared for recycling. This helps prevent waste from ending up in landfills and promotes the reuse of materials. MRFs play a crucial role in recycling efforts, helping to conserve resources and reduce environmental impact by turning waste into valuable materials for new products.
