Recycling on the web

There are now several sites cropping up on the web where packagers and package manufacturers alike can either source or recycle scrap packaging materials.

Smurfit Recycling Co., which claims to be the world's largest collector and marketer of recycled paper, now also buys scrap aluminum, steel, plastic and glass. If you have such materials to discard and would like to see what SRC will pay you, point your browser to j-src.com/mms (no "www" in front).
