GOODWILL'S RECYCLING MODEL FOR SUSTAINABILITY

Step 1  |  Recovery 

We actively promote donating as a form of recycling, giving Arkansans an easy, environmentally friendly, recycling option instead of landfilling their unwanted items. In the last year, we have expanded our recovery process to include home pick up options, which provides recycling service to groups who might not have access to transportation.

Step 2  |  Reuse

The resale of donated items gives unwanted items a second life. These affordable items directly benefit local communities and the environment by reducing material consumption. This step has been a key component to our mission.

Step 3  |  Recycle

When reuse is no longer an option, we recycle. We are continually exploring ways to further expand our recycling options to include new categories not previously processed. 

Step 4  |  Reinvest

The revenue generated through our reuse & recycling program is reinvested directly into the local communities that partner with us. This added 4th step sets us apart from what others in our industry are doing in recycling. We have expanded our reinvestment step in the past 2 years with the objective of greater impact on Arkansas communities.
