Recycle Management

Recovery 1 receives co-mingled loads of construction, demolition and land-clearing (CDL) debris.  The CDL is sorted, processed and transformed to re-useable and recycled commodities.  Although the services we offer apply across a diverse client base, our broad range of capabilities enables us to adapt to industry requirements.

Recovery 1 tailors our services to meet each clients needs.  That's why we have researched and developed innovative machinery and systems to specifically manage rail industry waste streams.  From equipping our facility with a railroad spur to finding solutions to meet your toughest recycling needs, we are ready to go to work for you.

Customer Solutions
Recovery 1 has developed solutions to manage difficult waste streams including over sized bridge timbers and cross ties contaminated with steel spikes, tie plates and joint bars.  While most processors reject these materials, our robust system manages them with ease.

Business Solutions
Recovery 1 can reduce your disposal cost and prevent long term financial implications when cross ties are improperly used or disposed of inappropriately.

Environment Solutions
The Recovery 1 process turns cross ties into clean high Btu fuel and other rail industry waste streams into reusable and recycled commodities.  Using wood biomass for renewable energy and bio-based products contributes to the Nation's energy independence, greenhouse gas reduction goals and provides opportunities to manage carbon.

Our Clients
Recovery 1 cultivates long term relationships, win-win opportunities and repeat business.  We understand that in an ever-changing marketplace, our success depends upon flexibility, innovation and consistent reassessment of our clients needs.  How can we help you?
