55 Gallon Plastic Drum Recycling
Shred, Wash, Regrind, Remelt… Reprocess
RECYCLING PLASTIC DRUMS IS ONLY ECONOMICAL IN LARGE QUANTITIES.
Transporting less than 100 drums per pick-up isn’t feasible without a charge due to the cost of freight, insurance, and labor.
We specialize in the end of life stage of 55 Gallon Poly Drums for High Volume Generators.
- Shred: Breaking down the drums for easier processing.
- Wash: Ensuring all residues are removed.
- Regrind: Turning the drums into reusable material.
- Remelt: Preparing the material for its next life.
- Reprocess: Creating new, valuable products.
We Handle All Types Of Drums For Recycling:
- 5-Gallon Jugs
- 35-Gallon Jerri-Cans
- 55-Gallon Poly Drums
All drums are made from HMW HDPE, which is fully recyclable into new construction products.
To transport scrap drums for processing, they must be BALED/CRUSHED, SHREDDED, or GROUND. This ensures a heavy shipment and makes a program logistically possible.
Chemical Drum Recycling
We purchase used chemical drums for recycling – but only in truckload quantities. Our advanced recycling methods involve shredding and melting ground poly drums, thus producing raw materials for new industrial products. Join us in our commitment to sustainable practices and environmental stewardship through chemical container recycling.
