Batavia, Illinois
Commercial Recycling in Batavia, IL
Batavia is the historic windmill town turned modern Fox Valley industrial corridor. Manufacturing along Fabyan Parkway and the Industrial Drive belt, consumer-goods operations, and the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory campus to the south anchor the local economy. CRI runs routes into Batavia from our Addison facility.
Manufacturing and Science
Batavia's industrial profile reaches across several segments. The Fabyan Parkway industrial spine carries contract manufacturing, plastics, consumer-goods production, and a tier of metal fabricators. The Industrial Drive corridor adds distribution and packaging operations. Fermilab, just south of town, anchors a tail of scientific and engineering tenants.
The waste streams reflect the mix. Manufacturers generate OCC, ferrous and non-ferrous scrap, and plastic regrind. Consumer-goods operators run pallet cycles and packaging waste. Scientific tenants contribute confidential paper, IT decommissioning, and a steady stream of specialty metals. CRI grades and prices every stream so the rebate side of the program is captured.
CRI handles all of it on one agreement, with state-certified scales on every load.

Batavia Recycling, Common Questions
How far is Batavia from CRI's plant?
About 20 miles east at our Addison facility, and we run routes into Batavia from there with same-day availability for urgent pickups. That keeps turnaround short for the Fabyan Parkway and Industrial Drive operators when a container fills faster than the regular schedule allows.
Can CRI handle the specialty metals and regrind from Batavia's manufacturers?
Yes. Batavia's mix runs metal-heavy: fabricators put out ferrous and non-ferrous scrap and specialty alloys, and plastics operators generate regrind. We set up segregation so those grades stay clean and priced right, and we also take OCC, pallets, and confidential paper on the same agreement. Every stream is graded so nothing valuable gets bundled into a flat fee.
Do the Fermilab-area scientific tenants have options beyond standard recycling?
They do. Scientific and engineering tenants south of town generate confidential paper, IT decommissioning, and a steady stream of specialty metals, and we support all three with documented handling and chain of custody. It runs on one CRI agreement with state-certified scales on every load, so the rebate math is verifiable.
