Greene Recycling handles cardboard recycling in Colorado for retailers, grocers, warehouses, restaurants, and manufacturers who want bales picked up on a schedule they can count on. Our trucks run routes in nine Colorado cities today. We’ve been doing this since 1995, and we serve more than 500 business locations across 13 route states.
Colorado geography is tough on haulers. Long distances, mountain passes, and winter weather all affect a route. We plan for that so your pickups keep happening.
Along the Front Range, routes run in Fort Collins, Colorado Springs, Monument, Falcon, and Pueblo, mostly following I-25. Woodland Park sits west of Colorado Springs on US-24. On the Western Slope, we run routes in Grand Junction and Montrose, and up north we pick up in Steamboat Springs.
Don’t see your town? We still provide cardboard recycling in Colorado statewide, including Denver, Boulder, and Greeley. Greene Recycling services businesses in all 50 states and will add your location to a route. Visit our areas served page or call 512-630-5108.

Your baled cardboard is worth money. As a recycling broker, Greene Recycling sells bales into the recycling market and shares the value with you. The more bales we pick up, the higher the rebate we can extend. Retailers with stores in both Colorado Springs and Fort Collins, for example, can combine volume and earn more.
That’s why many owners treat cardboard recycling in Colorado as a small revenue stream instead of a disposal bill. Read about how it works on our recycling rebates page.
We work with one-location shops and with national chains like Walgreens and Crate & Barrel. Every customer gets the same direct line to a team that knows their stops.
Corrugated cardboard is one of the most recycled packaging materials in the U.S., based on data from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Sending bales to a mill keeps them out of the landfill and turns them into new boxes.
Many Colorado companies also set waste reduction goals. Steady cardboard recycling in Colorado gives you a bale count you can report to customers or a corporate office, month after month.
Resort and mountain towns have their own patterns. A shop in Steamboat Springs may see a rush in ski season and again in summer. Will-call pickups handle those spikes without forcing you into a bigger schedule all year. We route mountain stops with the weather in mind, so cardboard recycling in Colorado doesn’t stop when the roads get rough.
Front Range stores have their own peaks, mostly around the holidays and back-to-school. The same flexible scheduling covers them.
It takes three steps. We talk about your locations, your baler, and your bale count. We add you to a route and confirm pickup days. Then the truck arrives and your rebate begins. New store opening in Pueblo or Grand Junction later? Call and we’ll add it. Common questions are answered on our FAQ page. Setting up cardboard recycling in Colorado with us doesn’t require changing how your staff works.
Your team bales cardboard as freight comes in and stacks finished bales at the dock or another spot we agree on. On your scheduled day, our driver loads the bales and logs the count, so you have a clear record for rebates and reporting. You don’t have to sort, call ahead, or wait for a window. If the baler jams or the bales come out loose, let us know and our baler service team will take a look.
In Colorado Springs, Monument, and Falcon, nearby stores often share a route day. That keeps trucks full and schedules tight, which is how we keep cardboard recycling in Colorado affordable for small shops and large chains alike. When your volume changes, we change the schedule with it. You won’t be stuck paying for pickups you don’t need.
Tell us where your Colorado locations are, about how many bales you make, and how often you want pickup. We’ll map a route and estimate your rebate. Request a quote online or call 512-630-5108 to start cardboard recycling in Colorado with Greene Recycling.
