Momentum has a New Destination for Mixed Recyclables
As of the start of May 2017, mixed recyclables collected from organizations participating in Momentum Recycling’s business services program have been going to Waste Management’s Material Recovery Facility (MRF) located in South Jordan, Utah. We feel strongly that this new path for your mixed recyclables will ensure greater capture rates while allowing us to have a more constructive dialogue about what can and can’t be recycled.
A quick update about items that are accepted in the mixed recyclables stream: plastic coated containers are okay to place in your blue bins. However, plastic bags and plastic film are still not considered acceptable items and neither is shredded paper (regardless of whether it is contained in bags).
Don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions you might have regarding acceptable items or our new partnership with the Waste Management MRF!

Without any doubts, recycling plays a global role in our life, but really often people underestimate and neglect it, but i try to pay attention to it. Despite this, before I hadn’t been really aware of a materials recovery facility and all its nuances. I think that it is quite difficult for many people to answer the question of what it really is. It is so cool that you covered this topic in the article and enlightened people about all important things connected with it. I couldn’t even imagine that the separating process is such a global thing which has certain steps and which is so sequential. After reading your article, I came to the conclusion that it is a really necessary tool which has considerable benefits. I think that it is really important to have an accurate understanding of MRF.
