Rumpke’s 20-Year Glass Recycling StoryRumpke’s 20-Year Glass Recycling Story

In 2004, Rumpke Waste and Recycling built its own glass recycling facility in Dayton, Ohio, after struggling with the lack of cost-effective options for processing glass in the region. Today, Rumpke processes about 60,000 tons of glass annually and continues to invest in advanced equipment to improve efficiency and expand access to glass recycling, aiming to grow alongside the company's other services.
