The Community Recycling Units collect eight different kinds of waste streams.
HOUSTON — Raise your hand is you have a corner, piled high with empty plastic bottles, cans, paper that look like Mount Everest?
Walmart and Sam’s Club are making it easier for you to recycle more in 2024.
The Community Recycling Units provide customers with an opportunity to recycle several different materials, many that go into new packaging and products at your local Sam’s Club or Walmart.
Your recycling at home may be limited in the waste streams collected.
The Community Recycling Units collect eight different kinds of waste streams.
This results in waste being dumped in landfills, incinerated, or polluting the natural environment.
Walmart aspires to fix that problem by diverting what they can for recycling or reuse.
The units accept eight different waste streams including: aluminum, clear plastic containers, home cleaning & beauty bottles, paper, plastic bags & films, plastic bottles, pet food packaging, and rigid food packaging.
Walmart Store Manager Scott Wasicek shared more details about these units and how easy it is to use them.
