Deep Green Waste & Recycling to implement Veolia RecyclePak program

Deep Green Waste & Recycling Inc., a full-service waste and recycling company headquartered in Marietta, Georgia, has entered into a distributor contract with Veolia North America, Boston, to further expand its offering of waste solution products and services for commercial properties.

Under this agreement, Deep Green will include Veolia's RecyclePak program in its portfolio of waste management services for retail, multifamily, industrial and institutional clients.

Veolia’s RecyclePak is a mail-back recycling program for lamps, ballast, batteries, e-scrap and mercury-containing materials. RecyclePak users order the container online, fill it with their materials, seal the container and ship it using a prepaid, preaddressed shipping label.

"Universal waste is a huge problem, and we feel that this is a valuable additional service for our clients. It is a great solution for them for the disposal of fluorescent lamps, ballasts, batteries, computer electronics and other mercury- and heavy-metal-containing waste," Bill Edmonds, chairman and CEO of Deep Green, says. "Not only is this a valuable service for our customers to help them be environmentally responsible and legally compliant, but it is a naturally accretive contributor to our revenue and cash flow, one more positive thing we're doing for the environment and a great market expander for Deep Green."

Deep Green manages the waste services and logistics of 300 commercial customers in 35 states across the Midwest, South and eastern U.S. The company also provides waste equipment handling solutions, including design, engineering, fabrication and installation of new and used equipment and maintenance services, through its wholly owned subsidiary Compaction and Recycling Equipment Inc., Clackamas, Oregon.
