Balcones Recycling advances Phoenix’s zero-waste goals with commercial recycling expansion
The expansion builds on Balcones' role as operator of the city's two existing MRFs

Balcones Recycling, a Circular Services company, now offers commercial recycling services to businesses in Phoenix and the surrounding communities.
With a long history of working in the private pure-play recycling industry, Balcones is now bringing its experience to the commercial sector, with the goal of helping businesses maximize diversion, recover valuable materials, and advance the City of Phoenix's zero-waste goals. The expansion builds on Balcones' foundation in the city as an operator of the City's material recovery facilities dedicated to processing residential recyclables.
Participating in the circular economy with valuable services
Balcones Recycling now provides full-service recycling solutions for businesses of all sizes in the greater Phoenix area. By partnering with Balcones, businesses can turn their recyclables, such as paper, cardboard, plastics, and metals, into valuable commodities kept in circulation rather than sent to landfills. Balcones also offers advisory services to help businesses identify opportunities to recover more materials and maximize the financial and environmental benefits of recycling.
"Phoenix has long been a leader in sustainability, and we're excited to take our partnership with the city and local businesses to the next level," said Brent Hildebrand, president of operations at Balcones Recycling. "By expanding our services, we're making it easier than ever for businesses to keep valuable materials in circulation and out of landfills."
