If your organization uses transit methods of any kind to get your goods and products where they need to go, you are very familiar with the mishaps that can occur. From equipment failures, such as refrigeration failure, mechanical issues that prevent transport vehicle movement, or accidents while goods are in transit, to labeling errors or production problems – all of these scenarios, and many others, can leave you with products that are spoiling, broken, or useless.

Cumberland Recycling is dedicated to assisting businesses handle unplanned waste. We will leverage our connections to find an environmentally sound way to help manage your operation’s unplanned waste. One of our most important goals here is to look for opportunities to repurpose that waste for another use. This could include recycling many types of items, such as pallets or food waste. Repurposing such items can result in providing your company with a source of additional income instead of burdening you with the expenses that come from the management of unplanned waste and the loss of the product. 

An event may occur that will mean your business is faced with an emergency related to waste that must be removed from your premises immediately. Cumberland Recycling is fully equipped and ready to handle most emergency situations, as well.
