How Our Organic Waste Recycling Solutions Work

Organic waste can include food products, beverages, liquid materials, alcohol-related waste, and agricultural byproducts that are no longer suitable for sale, distribution, or standard disposal. Shapiro helps businesses evaluate these materials, coordinate pickup or processing, and route them into practical recovery, recycling, diversion, or destruction pathways based on the material type, packaging, volume, and operational requirements. Our role is to make the process easier to manage, more compliant, and more efficient from pickup through final handling.

How Our Organic Waste Disposal Solutions Help the Environment

  • America generates an average of nearly 103 million tons of food waste a year
  • U.S. organic waste accounts for the largest amount of methane emissions
  • 8% of total global greenhouse gases released into the atmosphere are due to food waste
  • An estimated 30% of food in the United States is wasted at the retail and consumer level.
