Single stream recycling facility will process the increasing volumes of recyclable material generated by Waste Management’s commercial and residential customers across southeast Michigan.

Single stream recycling streamlines and simplifies the process of collecting and processing recyclable materials, and the facility eliminates the need for customers to separate recyclable materials prior to collection.

Waste Management Michigan and Ohio operations area vice president Denise Gretz said by operating the single stream recycling facility, the company can control each stage of the processing cycle.

Based in Houston, Texas, Waste Management is a provider of comprehensive waste management services in North America.
