Our Process of Recycling

How Does Recycling Work?

Recycling is when certain materials are collected, processed and made reusable. Recycling helps the environment by reducing the overall amount of pollution caused by waste, landfills, etc.

Clean every item

Clean items are crucial to avoid contamination during transportation.

Waste Collection

When recycle dumpsters are full, they are collected by LeMay Pacific Disposal at a curbside, multi-family dwelling, or business.

Recycling facility (MRF)

Once materials are delivered to a recycling facility, or material recovery facility (MRF), they are sorted and organized by material types.

Battery Disposal

Incorrect Battery Disposal Can Cause Fires

Common household items seem harmless, however, the batteries in them pose risks when disposed into regular garbage or recycling containers because of their highly flammable nature.

  • Remove the batteries

    Check the electronic devices you need to dispose of. If possible, remove the batteries. If not, bring the whole device to the drop off location.
  • Store batteries in a safe place

    Store batteries in non-metallic containers (plastic, cardboard, or glass) that do not conduct electricity if there is a spark.
  • Find your local drop off

    Find a local electronic disposal store, or find a drop off location near you.
