Recology

Recology is proud to be the first waste and recycling company to pilot a hydrogen fuel cell-powered electric refuse collection truck! Our partners, New Way® Trucks and Hyzon, have delivered cutting-edge technology that will bring our industry closer to achieving a zero-emission future. We’re so excited to test this vehicle on the streets of San Francisco as part of our pioneering efforts to reduce waste and use clean energy. “Recology’s leadership on recycling and composting helped make San Francisco ‘the greenest big city in the nation’” said Recology CEO Sal Coniglio. “Now we are leading the way on sustainable operations.” Read more at https://bit.ly/3T5Ymy6

Our CEO Sal Coniglio was joined by New Way® Trucks and Hyzon executives to highlight our hydrogen fuel cell-powered electric refuse collection truck at the Department of Energy Event last week! We were honored to show off our first-of-its-kind refuse trucks along with the other exciting San Francisco/Oakland hydrogen projects to the U.S. Department of Energy Under Secretary for Infrastructure David Crane, Governor Gavin Newsom, and Senator Alex Padilla. Recology has long emphasized fleet sustainability and we’re excited to pilot another environmentally progressive initiative in San Francisco. In collaboration with New Way and Hyzon, we’re proud to keep leading the way toward a zero-emission future!

With the support from our customers and community partners in 2023, Recology kept 1.4 million tons of material out of landfills – equivalent to nearly 70,000 full garbage trucks! By recovering as much recyclable and compostable materials as we can, we reduce greenhouse gas emissions, ensure the re-use of materials into new products, and deliver nutrients back to the earth.

We had an amazing time at our 2024 PNW Safety Road-eo and Company Picnic! This year’s event was held at the Portland Expo Center where Recology actually provides collection and processing services. Our employee-owners and families enjoyed a fun-filled day full of activities like dunking our general and operation managers at the dunk tank, participating in a raffle that featured local sponsorship prizes, and a friendly competition for truck drivers, forklift drivers, and mechanics. A special thank you to our Volunteer Committee, Safety Team, and Recology Ownership Culture Committee for hosting another fantastic event!

We’re excited to announce the release of our 2024 Sustainability Update! This year’s update highlights our commitments to partnering with local communities to advance resource recovery, decreasing greenhouse gas emissions, and supporting a diverse workforce.

We’re proud to announce that starting January 2026, we’ll be providing collection and processing services to the City of Redmond, Washington!

As #PlasticFreeJuly comes to an end, we want to thank everyone for using reusable items when you can, educating yourself on how to recycle correctly, and doing your part to reduce waste! At Recology, we aim to continuously invest in our recycling facilities, educate customers about source reduction and proper sorting, and work with producers to ensure the products and packaging they create are truly recyclable to address the larger issue of plastic pollution. Let’s keep working together while we strive for a #plasticfree future!
