We're all in this together

The mission of Waste-Not is to assist in creating a sustainable environment for present and future generations by providing quality recycling services. With a specialized focus on working with businesses, Waste-Not provides some of the most comprehensive recycling and reuse services to commercial, institutional and government accounts.

Waste-Not Recycling was founded by Anita R. Comer in 1989, based on her desire to protect the environment. Since then, the company has grown from volunteer-based curbside recycling programs in small towns to providing comprehensive recycling services to hundreds of businesses, schools and public entities in Colorado.  Clients include City of Fort Collins, Poudre School District, Larimer and Weld Counties, Poudre Valley Hospital, Agilent Technologies, Avago and Kodak.

The company’s creativity and commitment has allowed them to expand, even during dismal market cycles.  Currently Waste-Not is leading the industry in construction waste recycling.

Waste-Not Recycling has been a recipient of grants and contracts allowing the company to develop and expand recycling curriculum for state schools, as well as to develop a voluntary Environmental Stewardship program for businesses, rewarding them for their commitment to the environment. Our staff is active in State and Local Advisory, Solid Waste, Pollution Prevention and Recycling Boards.
