Yes, we pick up in Rhode Island. Tell us where your locations are and we’ll build a route around your schedule.
Rhode Island is the smallest state, but its stores, restaurants, and warehouses still fill balers every week. Greene Recycling offers cardboard recycling in Rhode Island for single locations and multi-site chains, with bale pickup and equipment service sized to your volume.
Greene Recycling was founded in 1995 with routes in Texas and Oklahoma. We’re based in Georgetown, Texas, and today we serve more than 500 business locations in all 50 states. That reach is how we offer cardboard recycling in Rhode Island without asking you to change the way your stores, kitchens, or loading docks already work.
We don’t have a truck route in Rhode Island yet, and we won’t pretend otherwise. What we do have is a simple process. You sign up, we map your locations, and we build a route around them. Because the state is compact, a single route along I-95 and I-295 can reach most of your locations. Your schedule can be weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or will-call, set around your bale volume.
That’s how cardboard recycling in Rhode Island begins for most new customers: one call, one plan, and pickups that match what your sites actually produce.
Every Rhode Island account gets the same services we provide nationwide:

Cardboard has value, and we treat it that way. As a recycling broker, Greene Recycling sells baled cardboard into the recycling market. The more bales we pick up, the higher the rebate we can extend to you. A busy grocery store in Warwick and a small shop in Newport both get credit for their bales.
For many businesses, that turns cardboard recycling in Rhode Island from a monthly cost into something that pays back. Read how our recycling rebates work.

Short distances work in your favor here. Wherever your site is, we can include it in the route we set up for you.
Corrugated boxes are among the most recycled packaging materials in the country, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. In a state with limited landfill space, keeping cardboard out of the waste stream matters. Baled cardboard goes back to paper mills and comes back as new boxes instead of taking up landfill space.
Steady cardboard recycling in Rhode Island also gives you numbers to report. Every bale we pick up is material kept out of the trash, which helps when a corporate office or a customer asks about your waste diversion.
The first step is a short call. We ask where your Rhode Island sites are, what kind of baler each one has, and roughly how many bales you fill in a typical week. If a site has no baler, we talk about whether a roll-off or a compactor makes more sense.
Next, we set your pickup days and confirm them with each store or plant manager. Once pickups begin, we watch the first few weeks closely. If bales stack up faster than expected, we add a stop. If they come in slower, we space pickups out. You can also check our FAQ page for quick answers before you call.
Clients like Walgreens and Crate & Barrel work with us because one company can handle locations in many states. If you have stores in Rhode Island and in neighboring states, we can put them under one account with one point of contact. That suits chains with stores in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Adding a location later takes a phone call.
Tell us where your Rhode Island locations are, about how many bales you produce, and how often you want a pickup. We’ll build a plan and a route for your sites so you can start cardboard recycling in Rhode Island. Request a quote online or call 512-630-5108 to talk with our team. Have locations in other states?
