On behalf of Carton Council and Resource Recycling Systems, we would like to thank the Alabama Solid Waste Association of North American (SWANA) for making us a part of their successful event! Upon returning from the conference in sunny Orange Beach, Alabama, we would like to acknowledge the hard work the Alabama Chapter of SWANA conducts as they serve approximately 140 members.
Among attendees of the conference, we had a unique message for this specific crowd as a majority of the municipal landfill owners and operators are also coordinators of their local recycling programs. Even though many are struggling with a small budget, we discussed how new options and technologies are available to make recycling a cost-effective and vital piece of business in every community.
