Industrial Recycling Services at Our El Paso Facility
From our El Paso location, we process and manage industrial scrap for companies across West Texas, the border region and northern Mexico. Our services integrate smoothly into manufacturing environments with high throughput and cross-border logistics considerations.
Industrial Scrap Processing & Materials Management
We handle a wide range of industrial scrap streams, focusing on efficient sorting, processing, and recovery. Our team helps organize materials at the source, improving downstream value and reducing landfill dependency.
Waste Collection & Facility Logistics
Collection programs are built around how your facility actually runs, including container placement, staging layouts, pickup timing, and production cycles. The goal is predictable service without production interruptions.
Recycling Programs Built for Long-Term Recovery
Rather than one-off pickups, we develop recycling programs that improve consistency and traceability, and thus reuse potential. These programs support long-term recovery goals and more stable material streams.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Can recycling services adapt to changing production schedules?
Yes. Pickup timing and service frequency can be modified as production ramps up, slows down or shifts seasonally.
What happens if material types change over time?
Recycling programs can be updated to accommodate new materials or changes in scrap composition.
Is recycling managed to avoid interference with shipping and receiving?
Container placement and pickup timing are coordinated to avoid conflicts with docks, freight movement, internal traffic, etc.
Do you work with facilities that generate mixed scrap streams?
Many El Paso facilities produce mixed materials, and our programs manage separation and recovery efficiently.
How involved does the facility team need to be?
Once the program is established, ongoing involvement is minimal. The goal is a system that runs smoothly without constant oversight.
Can recycling help improve overall plant organization?
In many cases, yes. Better scrap flow and container placement lead to cleaner work areas and improved material movement.
