Honored to have been invited by Meghan Fogarty to speak about the power of reuse at the Professional Recyclers of Pennsylvania's 36th Annual Recycling & Organics Conference in Lancaster, PA.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined the session. The thoughtful questions from Pennsylvania's recycling coordinators, haulers, municipal leaders, and organics operators made for an incredible discussion.

It's always inspiring to see so many people committed to finding practical ways to keep valuable materials out of landfills and in the hands of communities that need them.
Looking forward to continuing the conversation—and turning great ideas into real impact. Let's make sh*t happen. ♻️

Landfill = avoided.
Community needs = met.

We salvaged retail fixtures and put them where they could help, not harm.

Old phones, laptops, and gadgets aren’t just clutter, they’re a massive sustainability challenge. Reuse, recycle, and rethink before you toss. 🌍

Surplus snacks, sweet results. 😋

We turned soon-to-expire Pocky sticks into smiles, securing a safety extension and getting two truckloads into the local community instead of the landfill.

That’s reuse with heart.

2,700 liters of water.
1 t-shirt.
🌍 That’s why fashion choices matter.

This is what circularity looks like.

A global streaming brand had pallets of show-specific products with nowhere to go.
We found them a second life.

Less landfill. More impact.

That's the equivalent to cutting current annual emissions by almost 20%... Think about it.
