Are you looking for a way to recycle the various types of paper waste you generate in your household? Does your curbside service only pick up certain types of paper, leaving you wondering what to do with your glossy magazines, catalogs, fliers and other papers? The Abitibi Paper Retriever may be the answer to your paper recycling needs.

The Paper Retriever Program works in partnership with local non-profit organizations like schools and churches by placing recycling bins in highly visible areas onsite for use by members in the community. These organizations are paid for the recycled paper based on weight, and are then able to use those funds at their discretion in their service to the community. 

The types of paper that may be recycled are: Newspapers, Magazines, Mail, Catalogs, and School & Office Papers.

The Paper Retriever Program is a great illustration of how recycling can give back. Recycling with the Paper Retriever not only enhances your community by reducing waste, it also supports the organizations that serve in your community. 

Look for the bright yellow and green recycling bins in your area!
