Empire Waste is proud to say we have been recycling since early 2002!
Contributing, to make our world more eco-friendly. Keeping recyclable and compost material out of our landfill, not only prevents waste from going to the growing landfills, but it also creates new markets for all of the recycled materials. It is this practice that keeps Southern Utah clean & green.
The process of recycling paper instead of making it from new materials generates 74% less air pollution and uses 50% less water.
This is southern Utah’s Future. Recycling Is an excellent first step towards cost savings and operational efficiency. We sort, bale and recycle material locally. Keeping individuals and business in work. Call us today and let’s see how we can help southern Utah be more green!

These are recycling materials that we are currently excepting
Recycling is a process to change (waste) materials into new products to prevent waste of potentially useful materials, reduce the consumption of fresh raw materials, reduce energy usage, reduce air pollution (from incineration) and water pollution (from landfilling) by reducing the need for "conventional" waste disposal, and lower greenhouse gas emissions as compared to plastic production. Recycling is a key component of modern waste reduction and is the third component of the "Reduce, Reuse and Recycle" waste hierarchy.
Recyclable materials include many kinds of glass, paper, metal, plastic, textiles, and electronics. The composting or other reuse of biodegradable waste—such as food or garden waste—is also considered recycling. Materials to be recycled are either brought to a collection center or picked up from the curbside, then sorted, cleaned, and reprocessed into new materials bound for manufacturing.
