RECYCLING

Looney Boxes has responded to the growing demand for recycling by launching Harvest Recycling in Downtown Phoenix. This facility processes materials collected from both residential and commercial construction sites, significantly improving landfill diversion rates, which now exceed 70%. Harvest Recycling is dedicated to recycling 75-80% of all construction and demolition debris that Looney Boxes works with, transforming it into reusable products and commodities.

The facility accepts a variety of materials, including concrete, dirt, rock, floor tile, cardboard, plastics, metals, drywall, granite, countertops, wood, and green waste. These materials are sorted by both staff and automated equipment, and once processed, they are sent to specialized facilities for reuse. However, Harvest Recycling does not accept food waste, hazardous materials, medical waste, tires, oils, liquids, sewage, or flammable substances. The combined efforts of Looney Boxes and Harvest Recycling help municipalities and businesses recycle efficiently and economically.
