Commercial Recycling in New York, NY
New York is the country's biggest consumer market, and nearly all of its goods move by truck. That makes the five boroughs one of the densest last-mile and e-commerce markets anywhere, with JFK the top US gateway for international air cargo. All of it runs on corrugated and pallets. CRI services New York accounts with the same single-point-of-contact relationship our direct-fleet customers get.
Built for the Five Boroughs' Last Mile
New York is the largest consumer market in the country, and close to 90 percent of its goods move by truck, which makes the metro one of the densest last-mile and e-commerce markets anywhere. JFK is the top US gateway for international air cargo, and the Port of New York and New Jersey sits right across the harbor, feeding a constant flow of imports into the city.
The volume lives in the outer-borough industrial districts. Sunset Park, Red Hook, and the East Williamsburg industrial zone in Brooklyn, Long Island City, Maspeth, and Jamaica in Queens, and Hunts Point in the Bronx are packed with last-mile DCs, printers, and food manufacturers running high-volume OCC, stretch film, and pallets. Clean cardboard graded right is rebate revenue, not a disposal cost.
CRI services New York through our vetted partner network. The customer relationship runs end to end with CRI: one team, one invoice, one point of contact.

New York Recycling, Common Questions
We run a last-mile DC, printer, or food plant in the boroughs. Can CRI handle our OCC and film at volume?
Yes. We size spotted trailers and compactors to tight urban docks, schedule swaps so you are never backed up, and weigh every load on state-certified scales. Clean OCC ships mill-direct so it earns rebate value instead of becoming a disposal line item.
Can CRI report our diversion rate for sustainability goals?
Yes. You get monthly reporting on volumes, commodity revenue, and diversion rate, built for the ESG and finance teams that need the numbers documented.
We juggle three or four vendors for recycling and trash. Can CRI replace that?
Yes. CRI handles every stream your New York facility produces, OCC and paper, film, pallets, and metal, on one agreement with one invoice and one number to call. No more chasing a different vendor for each material.
