Unique Recycling began recycling paper in 1973.

With over 60 years of experience, Unique is the most experienced at handling paper in the Midwest.

Unique recycles all grades of paper, including old corrugated containers (OCC), Double Lined Kraft (DLK), office paper, Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS), Boxboard, Newsprint, and many more.

Plastics have become incredibly common, used in day to day items, and they so often end up in landfills. 

Unique Recycling can both add to your profitability and protect the environment by ensuring your plastics are reused instead of wasted.

As experts in the field, we recycle full truck loads of everything including shrink-wrap, PET, PVC, polycarbonate, LDPE, HDPE, nylon, and many more.

We want you to get the full value from your valuable materials.

Unique recycles the whole spectrum metals, both ferrous and non-ferrous. 

We handle everything – iron, steel, brass, copper, zinc, aluminum, stainless, machinery, clippings, shavings, rackings, and many more. 

We can leave containers specifically for these full load items, at no cost to you.

Our job is to make your business easier.

Unique recycles many other items, including gaylords, pallets, etc. 

We want to keep your recyclables out of the landfills and save you all those disposal costs. 

Being “green” is of prime importance, not only for your company’s reputation, but also for your bottom line.
